He always struck me as a kind man with great faith. He'll be missed.

I liked Faust. He seemed a little more down to earth than most of the other apostles. I think he was a registered democrat, If I recall correctly. Thanks for posting this, Runtu.

This is sad but it was nice he was able to die at home with his family around.

I wonder who will replace him?

I am hoping that Elder Oaks will replace him.

From the sublime to the ridiculous. Pres Faust's inherent kindness will be missed.

Hi,
I will also miss President James Faust. I hope that his family is doing well.

There is a poll going on over at MAD, you can vote for your favorite. I wonder if they will find someone a bit younger and chance of seeing anyone in their 40's or 50's appointed?

ACCESS DENIED. Perhaps you could start a similiar poll here, so we who are banned could vote?

Yeah, good old "Gold-Filling Faust".
