President Hinckley has been an influence in my life for as long as I can remember.  Equivalent to the Pope, President Hinckley was the spiritual leader for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and for the last (I don’t even know how long) several years has provided constant guidance to members of the LDS Church.  Instead of trying to write a fitting memorial here, I would like instead to invite you to join several of us who are attempting to memorialize his life in the “Web 2.0″ way. 

• Here’s the official announcement from the LDS Church

• If you are on Facebook, there is a memorial there that you can join and leave your thoughts on the wall.

• If you are a member of Digg, you can Digg up the stories about his passing.

• There is an awesome video on YouTube about his life that you can watch and comment on.

• There are several already, but here is a great blog post memorializing him.

• Technorati already has several blog posts about his passing.

• Here is the wikipedia page on him as well.

May he rest in peace and rejoice at his reunion with his beloved wife.  Mortals weep while Heaven rejoices his returning home.
