Jag älskar Gordon B Hinckley!

Hittade följande, som rörde mig:

Preparing for school on Monday morning took a different turn for thousands of teenage Mormon students who, some 12 hours earlier, had learned of the death of their Church president, Gordon B. Hinckley.

The students responded to a flood of text messages from teens in at least six states, suggesting they arrive at school in their "Sunday best," rather than their accustomed jeans or other casual clothes, as a symbol of respect and honor to their deceased leader.

For Anna of Salt Lake City’s Highland High, the Sunday dress was a means of saying "how much I would miss him, but without really saying anything."

The fact that a 97-year-old man could effectively communicate with young people more than eight decades his junior was striking. But Gordon B. Hinckley delivered hundreds of sermons that resonated with young people throughout the worldwide membership of the Church.

Det minsta jag kan göra för att visa hur mycket jag kommer att sakna honom är att ta på mig söndagskläder imorgon när jag ska titta på begravningen hemma på datorn.

While standing at the pulpit together in a church area conference, President Hinckley discussed the years [he and his wife] had been together and began to weep.

"Has it been that bad?" asked Sister Hinckley.



Det är så jag vill minnas honom, med henne vid sin sida. Nu är de tillsammans igen.
