“I express my deepest empathy, sympathy, and love to the family of Gordon B. Hinckley. I agree with Senator Bennett, that President Hinckley in dying was happy to go and again be with his beloved eternal companion, Marjorie, whom he missed, who died about 4 years before him, and to be with others he has known here on this Earth, and others he would like to know who helped to make this country the greatest in the world, and many others as well. President Hinckley was as ecumenical as a person could be. He led a worldwide church, the fifth largest church in America, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He basically taught all of us to understand that all religions are good and that we should work together. I don't think there has been a humanitarian mission or a major disaster anywhere in the world where the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints--nicknamed the Mormons--hasn't cooperated with Catholic charities and other Christian charities--especially Catholic charities--to immediately go into action and provide the needed food, clothing, pharmaceuticals, et cetera, all over the world.”
