Elder Wirthlin has been a favorite of mine for a while now. I will miss his cute, funny personality, but he has indeed earned his rest from this mortal life. His last conference talked "Come What May, and Love It" was so good and just what I needed this year. One sentence from that talk stuck out and rings in my head at least once a day.
"If we approach adversities wisely, our hardest times can be times of greatest growth, which in turn can lead toward times of greatest happiness."
I love that he played football (even if it was for the U) and loved sports. He was so down to earth. He reminds me so much of my grandpa who also lived to see a busy age of 91. What great examples these men are. He will be missed, but I smile when I think of where he is now.
