In Memory of a Prophet of God

I have just received the news that our beloved prophet has died. He has always felt like "our" prophet. He signed the papers that sent Price, Tim, Morgan and his brothers on their missions. He was the prophet when Jessie and Morgan, Price and Sarah and so many others were married. He was the prophet when I served as Primary President and he was the prophet that had the most engaging smile. I will miss him.
Tonight as I sit here I want you all to know how much I love the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I want you to know that I love my savior Jesus Christ. I love the prophets - each one. I believe in Christ. He is my savior. I cannot imagine my life without the influence of the church or the blessings of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I am touched to know I was blessed to be raised in Mormon home and that I was trusted to be the mother to you children. I love my life and I love each of you. I bear you my testimony that this church is true. That the blessings of the temple are real and that it is only through obedience that we will be together throughout eternity.
Please be good.
Please be prayerful.
Please be faithful.
Please love one another.
Please live a Christ-centered life.
I love you all.
your mom
your sister
your wife
your daughter
your friend
