President Hinckley...

Well I really was shocked to hear this. I had just taken a quiz in class and one of my classmates who goes to church with me asked if I had heard about President Hinckley? I said no and my first thought wasn't that he had died. She then tells me that he died last night. I feel very sad about this. He is the only prophet that I know. I do find comfort in the fact that he is with his eternal companion. I do know that he was a true prophet and led our church with great faith. The Story clans thoughts are with his family and to everyone else in the church because we have truly lost a great man. I hope we all can remember him for the awesome prophet that he was and all he has done for the church.

Yeah my sister called about an hour after the news was out. We hadnt heard of any serious things with him so it was a bit of a shock. But always remember that the latter day prophets are all prophets of God. Wven Thomas S. Monson will be a true prophet of God.

I can so feel that already even without it being official yet, the church site says they are going to wait until after his services to announce his succesor.
