President Hinkley

I got the news late last night that the president of my church, Gordan B. Hinkley, passed away last night. My immediate feeling was relief and happiness for this man who was 97 and lost his wife several years ago. President Hinkley became the Prophet just months after I joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and is the only president of the church that I have ever been familiar with. I will miss him. At the same time, I now look forward to welcoming the new prophet and learning from him.
