I know this is old news, but I still feel like I should do this. We had some friends over along with the missionaries and watched his funeral and I just kept being amazed at what an amazing man he is! He has done so much for our church and for LDS members and I will miss him terribly! I am so happy for him that he is with his sweet Marjorie again. He missed her so much and I can only hope that we all use their love for one another as examples for us in our own lives.
My cousin had this on her blog so I stole it to put on mine:
Prophetic Passing
I imagine he's running to Marjorie now,
Yes, running, not waving his cane.
I see him embracing his father and mother
While they keep repeating his name.
I see him now meeting his forebears,
Brother Brigham and Joseph are there.
Sweet reunion of prophets, united by service
That only such noble men share.
I see him embraced by the Savior
While Father says, "Good and well done.
So faithful in stalwart endurance, I welcome
My noble, most excellent son.
"I then hear the ripples of laughter
As he says the reception's just fine,
But he hopes that he'll get an assignment or two
Since there's no need to waste any time.
I can hear his clear voice in the stillness
At the close of this sweet Sabbath day,
Have faith and move forward, there's work to be done.
President Hinckley would want it that way.
