Bittersweet news to hear that President Gordon B. Hinckley passed away yesterday. What a great man and wonderful example to us all! But now he gets to be back with his sweetheart, Marjorie!! I will never forget my awesome experience of meeting him in the Salt Lake temple. I was there to attend a sealing for one of my dear gal pals ( I cannot remember who??) Anyway, we were standing in the hall waiting to file into the sealing room, when from around the corner I could hear a very familiar voice!! I said to my friend standing next to me, "Hey, thats President Hinckley!" And sure enough, around the corner came the prophet. He shook hands and smiled hello to everyone. He was going to marry his grandson in the room next to us! I'll never forget his smiling face and kind attitude that radiated from his entire body! We love and miss you Gordon B!!
