A hug for him...

My daughter Nini said in our FHE prayer this evening, that He, speaking to Heavenly Father, should give President Hinckley a hug for her. It's a blessing to have seen the impact he has had on our church and how everyone perceives the Mormon faith. I am grateful for his love and compassion and ability to speak honestly and faithfully, to members of our church and to the media. I was devastated when he lost his wife years ago, as he was never timid at telling everyone how much he missed and loved her. It is a blessing for him to be reunited with her, although we will sincerely miss him. I know that there is a hug being given in Heaven just as I type this post!
I hope everyone is well and wish you the best.

That's so sweet. Children's concepts of heaven make me well up with tears every time.

What a sweet little girl. I'm sure he got his hug! Can you imagine the joy experienced as a prophet of God returned home to his sweet wife and his Father in Heaven? Glorious! We are so blessed to have him as our prophet.
