A True Hero

My dear friend, Manny Luna, passed away today. Nobody ever fought harder against cancer than Manny. I served in the Bishopric with him many years ago. What a gentle soul. I tried to visit him often and will always cherish those visits. On one of those occasions, I left thinking, "wow, people pay good money for a motivational speaker and I just have to walk up the street." When I was set apart in my latest calling, there was just one I needed there. As sick as he was, Manny came and stood in that circle.

Sorry for your loss. It's tough to lose those we love.
