Great man and leader, and very well written article to support him. Thank you Deseret News for posting the story so early. I live in Zurich, Switzerland and it's great to get news during my day hours.

President Faust has been a great example of love and kindness to me. I am a senior sister missionary in Melbourne West Australia Mission. My heart goes out to President Faust's family and I pray God's peace be with them.

Every time I listened to President Faust or read something he had written, his manner exuded patience and kindness. Whatever feelings I may have had at the time, I always felt peaceful and was lifted up after hearing him. I will miss his calming influence.

I always loved to hear him speak. I will miss his conference talks. "God be with you till we meet again"

This was really sad news though we have been able to see that president Faust was getting older and weaker lately. President Faust was indeed a good example and I will miss listening to him and even interperet his talks to Norwegian during General Conferences.

My thoughts and prayers goes to his family at this time!

We've never met President Faust in person, but that does not mean than we can't love and respect him and count him a great blessing in our lives. We have listened with interest and real intent as he has taught all of us through the years. We hope we can live as he taught.

Sad day for many. Blessings to his family. But, a great day for him because we all know where he is. May we all live our lives in such as a way so as to reflect his.

I have always loved this strong and tender leader. We will all miss him and truly, the world is a little more empty for us all. But what joy for him and truly, his wonderful wife, family, and his Brethren will be our family's prayers! We are so grateful for his constant service.

President Faust's current Ensign article was used as the lesson for our Relief Society in Canton CT Sunday. He was truly a Man of God and will be missed by all of us, especially President Hinckley and President Monson. My thoughts and prayers are will his family and his fellow Apostles.
