We Will Miss You
Our hearts are heavy today to learn of the passing of this amazing man. As we reflect back on all he has done and the great impact that he has had on both of our lives. We also know that he is where he wants to be with his wonderful wife. We can only imagine the joy he had when he saw her again. We love, honor, and cherish everything that he has done.
You were generals in the War in Heaven and one day when you are in the spirit world, you will be enthralled by those you are associated with. You will ask someone in which time period they lived and you might hear, 'I was with Moses when he parted the Red Sea,' or 'I helped build the pyramids,' or 'I fought with Captain Moroni.' And as you are standing there in amazement, someone will turn to you and ask you which of the prophets' time did you live in? And when you say 'Gordon B. Hinckley' a hush will fall over every hall and corridor in Heaven, and all in attendance will bow at your presence. You were held back six thousand years because you were the most talented, most obedient, most courageous, and most righteous.
Elder Boyd K. Packer
