President Gordon B Hinckley passed away
We've had numerous phone calls telling us that President Hinckley died today at 7:00PM at 97 years old. Most remember his sense of humor and the big push for getting temples accessible to more members of the church. Also that he talked with the media numerous times and reiterating that members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints are indeed Christians. The state of Utah is going to miss seeing him around frequently, but are rejoicing in his life and eager to welcome whomever the new prophet will be. :)

The weather gave him a dramatic goodbye. Big, howling storm last night. oO

Yeah, we still have to shovel the snow too. We'll miss him, and all the flags are half-staff until his funeral this weekend. Don't know who exactly is going to be in town for that, but we know that Mitt Romney said he would come for it.
