I would like Elder Eyring. He has roots in the Mexican Colonies!

Oh well, I am 76, so I guess that leaves me out! Just kidding, no disrespect intended.

As a non-member I should not opine, but that has never stopped me. I vote for a counselor Elder Snow, former first seventy and church historian. He is a wonderfully Godly man and it is about time a historian gets recognized for their vital work. Besides if you understand the history of the Church, then you understand how it's doctrine has developed and morphed over the years. They are inter-connected. Oh, and I always thought he looked like a leader of the Church, whatever that means. Elder Snow, former Church historian for counselor!

I have not been able to post since around the 16th of September. My wife had been in coronary ICU almost all of that time. Last night she was transferred to a hospital in a suburb of Phoenix from El Paso to have a greater likelihood of experiencing an open heart surgery at a bigger hospital. So here I am in Phoenix with her waiting for the doctors to make up their minds about her surgery since she has infections in both her heart and spine, and has experienced a number of strokes from the no-longer-functioning mitral valve. I mention this for two reasons- to explain my sudden absence and to offer my best wishes to all My LDS friends in their loss of their prophet, a pioneering open heart surgery physician. My heart is tender because of the proximity of the loss of my dear wife of 55 years. I offer my condolences and heart felt grief for each of you who lost he who was a leader and the thee leader of your church. Also, I am in grief with you over those who lost so much today in Michigan. I am uncertain of the details, but it is a terrible to thing to have happen. Best to all.
