As I held her hand and saw mortal life drain from her fingers, I confess I was overcome. Before I married her, she had been the girl of my dreams, to use the words of a song then popular. She was my dear companion for more than two-thirds of a century, my equal before the Lord, really my superior. And now in my old age, she has again become the girl of my dreams." I am glad he sees her no longer just in his dreams. Speaking of Marjorie, he said: “My children and I were at her bedside as she slipped peacefully into eternity.

How apt that description ("Mormon pioneer") is.

One of the greatest prophets of this or any dispensation has left this sphere of existence and will carry on the work in the other. The world will always have been a better place because Gordon B. Hinckley walked upon it. Praise to the man who communed with Jehova!

The right to select rests with the Lord. He is the master of life and death. His is the power to call. His is the power to take away. His is the power to retain. It is all in his hands. I do not know why in his grand scheme one such as I would find a place. But having this mantle come upon me, I now rededicate whatever I have of strength or time or talent or life to the work of my master in the service of my brethren and sisters." -GBH, April 1995. “This office is not one to be sought after.

I agree. It seems so surreal, and yet I'm not as sad as I thought I would be. How great that they are together again! Matt W.

For the past 5 minutes I have beenstaring at the words on the screen. But at last, all I can think is he has returned to Marjorie.
