This is the late Gordon B. Hinckley, who was the prophet and president of the Church from 1995 to 2008. He is the "prophet of my youth"...the man who was leading the Church when my testimony truly took root and began growing. Aside from being a wonderful man and incredible representative of Christ, who did so much for the Church, he also had a great sense of humor. And, as the above picture makes clear, he was pretty classy. His smile was the one of the most endearing and contagious I have ever seen. I think this photo captured that well.
Awe, I love him. This photo is like a big hug.
