Happy/Sad


Recently, I was reading a story to my six-year-old granddaughter, Gabby that talked about being happy/sad.  In trying to explain what that was, I told her that I was happy/sad about going on a mission: happy to go and serve my Heavenly Father, but sad to leave her and all the rest of my family.  I thought her response was quite profound.  She said she felt happy/sad about the apostles that died.  She was happy for the three new ones, but sad the others had died.  Well said, Gabby, well said.
Happy:
Ronald A. Rasband, Gary E. Stevenson, Dale G. Renlund
Sad:

L. Tom Perry

Boyd K. Packer

Richard G. Scott
