RevTestament Posted February 3 Posted February 3 This may sound freaky, but I was just thinking about this subject this morning... while he was passing it seems. In many ways Nelson was a man for all seasons, and I will miss him.
Popular Post Stormin' Mormon Posted February 3 Popular Post Posted February 3 I'm not seeing any news or announcements online. Yet. Where did you wife hear the news? 6
Calm Posted February 3 Posted February 3 (edited) Please ask your wife where she heard it. I find it hard to believe this happening with no leaks online but being shared offline. Maybe names were confused by someone somewhere? Especially if it’s almost two hours since she heard. Edited February 3 by Calm 4
Popular Post InCognitus Posted February 3 Popular Post Posted February 3 Last night I saw a click bait video on Youtube with a title that might make one think that President Nelson had passed away, but it turned out to be a life story about him. It was this video (posted 4 days ago): 30 MINUTES AGO: Great sadness for Russell M. Nelson – His wife confirmed the sad news It includes this description: "Russell M. Nelson, a name you might recognize as the president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints, has led a life that feels almost too extraordinary to be real. Groundbreaking surgeon? Check. Visionary religious leader at 100 years old Double check. But behind all the accomplishments lies a story so heartbreaking, so human, it’s hard to believe one man has carried this much. How does someone endure a lot of pain and yet still find the strength to inspire millions? Stick with me, because by the time we’re done, you’ll understand why. Let’s dive in." I hate it when people use hooks like that to get people to watch the video. I don't know if this is what the person in the OP had in mind, but I certainly hope I'm right about this. 6

Now if we could just get the person who put up that video on Youtube to change the title too! And I had a déjà vu moment when I glanced at the topics on the message board a few minutes ago and saw the title of this thread, because I went through the same Googling exercise a few minutes ago as I did last night when I saw that Youtube video. It was annoying! 1
CV75 Posted February 3 Posted February 3 All you hear about is his death, but not about the clear implication that he is now translated and continuing on in his service! 1

rpn Posted February 4 Posted February 4 I hope someone is planning to delete the thread (which is misleading (and click bait inappropriately rewarding someone who doesn't deserve to be rewarded) or at least correct so that no one has to go looking themselves to know that Pres. Nelson remains alive at least as of this moment. 3
Calm Posted February 4 Posted February 4 (edited) It’s been reported unless I got distracted and just think I hit send, lol Anakin can’t delete it. He sometimes posts and then doesn’t come back for a bit. Hopefully either he or a mod will show up tonight. Edited February 4 by Calm 1
Anakin7 Posted February 4 Author Posted February 4 I was told this by my wife in a text she received from one of our ex-Stake Presidents wives this morning. I apologize for any discomfort for this, I was just reporting what my wife was told. Sorry everyone. 3

I know your posts are often short or links, so maybe you haven’t needed to edit before, just click the three dots on the corner of your post. I was not bothered by it, btw. I do think it’s a good idea not to confuse people though by correcting it. Edited February 4 by Calm
Dario_M Posted February 4 Posted February 4 Did he past away or not? I'm reading some comments but it's not clear to me and it's kinda confussing.
