Our Beloved Prophet!


Our family will truly miss our sweet yet humorous dear prophet. We are so thankful we were in his presence last October in the conference center for the Saturday afternoon session of General Conference. Grandpa Holliday from Mississippi and his brother Parley Holliday were also with us. We were there because Brooke sang in the Young Women's choir. What an honor to be near him during his last conference as our prophet. Ann, Brooke, and Catie also saw him for the last time in December at the Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert! We love you President Hinckley!
