Elder Richard G. Scott Dies at Age 86
Elder Richard G. Scott of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints died Tuesday at 1:45 p.m. MDT from causes incident to age, while surrounded by his family at his home in Salt Lake City. He was 86. Ref. Source 1m
It is hard to refute a man who loves so deeply the Savior, Jesus Christ and his fellow man. When Elder Scott spoke, he spoke in a manner that I always felt loved.
With his passing, occurs the need to call 3 new Apostles. In my 40 years of life and to my knowledge, this will be the first time that 3 Apostles have been called in the same conference.
President Monson, his counselors, and the remaining twelve have much to prepare for, as conference is less than two weeks away.
Thank you Elder Scott for you loving and valiant service. Till We Meet Again.
One of the few Brethren I always anticipated listening to at Conference. Now all I have is the memories, may he 'rest in peace', although he is likely doing more work over there I'm sure.
