I am thankful for the chance to say that I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I am also grateful for our Prophet, President Hinckley.
I remember when President Bensen died, he was born in Whitney Idaho, which was just straight behind my house in Idaho and up and over the mountain. I assumed that President Monson or President Hinckley would be the next Prophet. They being the Councilors, in my mind they would be the next to be President. I didn't know it would be Elder Hunter until later (I was not disappointed I just didn't know how it worked). I was hoping for Elder Monson, from a young age I have had a love for "little Tommy Monson." Living over sea's I remember listening to him, I loved his stories, his kind heart, and the way he could make us all laugh. President Hinckley seemed so serious, and he looked so old (what a girl I was). When I learned how the transition from Prophet of old to new Prophet worked I gladly sustained President Hunter.
I soon understood the process and I remember looking to see when Elder Monson would be prophet. Never in a million years would I have believed that I would come to know and love President Hinckley as I do. Never could I have known how he would have touched my life with council in so many ways. What an amazing example and an amazing Prophet. President Hinckley and Sister Hinckley were a shinning example to all husband and wives. I love them and I am thankful that President Hinckley's heart is now happy again, seeing his beloved Marjorie. How wonderful our beliefs are, how wonderful is this organization.

I'd seen that before. It's so great but what part of his life wasn't.
Loved the slideshow Jen, thanks!
Jenn, I made that slide show, myself!!! He was an amazing man!
You seriously made it? Had you shared it with anyone? Maybe someone took it off your blog. I'm sure I saw it on a Young Womens group I'm in. If it was yours it's all over the world. Neat!
Jenny, that was so cool.I loved all the pictures. Great job!
Jenn, yes I seriously made it, you probably have seen the same pictures, but yes I downloaded all the pictures and put it to music. Did you listen to the music?
Ya I listened to it. I swear it was in the group. I'll look to see if I can find the one I watched and see who sent it.
Okay Jen, I've looked in my all over my e-mails and I even searched online to find it. I don't know where the one I watched before I watched yours is. If it wasn't yours it was very similar. I don't recall the music but the start and end were similar(black beginning and ending with white words). It's bugging me enough that I'll probably keep looking.
Jenn I did see one online that started out with Pres. Hinckley and ended with his Be attitudes and then they played God be with you at the end. I am sure that is the one you are thinking of, mine is simular, but I got all the photos from online then put it together in my elements program. I tried to copy and paste one and I couldn't get it to work, that would have been a lot easier.
Found it! After e-mailing anyone that would have sent it to me someone resent it to me. I knew I wasn't going crazy. It is different. I remembered the background,the white letters, and the sweet feelings; they were the same in both. Here's the link to the other video:
