Today we just ask for tender thoughts and faith filled prayers for our beloved friend and his dear family! As the veil is thin for them at this time we want them to know of our deepest and most unconditional love. This great man was not only our stake president for the majority of the years we have lived in Utah, he has also stood as a stunning example of true friendship, compassion, love for family, and community, commitment, and unwavering testimony and faith. He is firmly rooted in his covenants, and love for the gospel of Jesus Christ and our Heavenly Father's glorious plan of happiness! He is a tall, strong man yet it has always been absolutely evident through his gentleness and kind eyes what love he has for others and has always been genuinely concerned for the individual and well being of others. He and his dear wife stand as stunning examples of companionship and service not only deeply to each other but to all those they come in contact with. Our stake and all around community has been truly elevated through this great disciple, his family and his unwavering commitment to our Savior Jesus Christ! We so deeply want to express our sweetest and most profound love and respect for this dear brother of ours. Oh, we love you President Currie and we pray for our Father in Heaven's sweetest peace and love to envelope you and your family at this most tender time!!
**We wanted to add another thing that President Currie has shared so profoundly with our family.... his love for good music and his extraordinary talent of singing and sharing such music. One of our personal favorites in this area is when we heard him express his love for one of the Forgotten Carol songs, by Michael McClean, "I Was Not His Father, He Was Mine" and then he sang it in one of our sacrament meetings! The spirit of that song was felt so strongly and yet so tenderly-- I remember our sweet Rylan in the congregation just smiling and soooo happy through it all! So much of this great man's life is such a continued blessing to so many. I've attached this song for those who may know what I am talking about!
We LOVE you Currie Family!
