President Hinckley

I first heard about his passing from an upstairs neighbor who'd received a phone call. One of my roommates was disappointed because now he can't sign her mission call -- she's twenty now and will be leaving in about a year. I remember how thrilled I was when he announced the temple construction plan to double the number of temples. I also remember being in the Tabernacle for a young women's conference and how silent and reverent it was when he entered. And I was at Ricks when he came to dedicate an administration building, and I remember how we all stood when he entered and he impatiently waved his hands at us to sit down.

We will miss him.
