David Steele Hansen

Since moving to Orem in 2012 we have been "out of the loop." It was very very late that we heard about David's passing, even having seen a new home being built in David's garden. After asking old friends in the Moss Hill Ward about that "new house" and finding out it was for Shirlee. We were very saddened to find out the "news." If we had been better informed, we would certainly have been to the viewing and funeral. Our service with David in the Bishopric of the Millstream Ward YA Ward...

On of the best men I ever knew. He saved my life.

Dear Shirlee,

We enjoyed associating with you and Dave on a professional basis and appreciated your genuine friendship. We admire you both for your exemplary lives. We pray for comfort and blessing upon you and your family.

Hansome is what we called our wonderful Bishop. Honor is the only word to describe such a loving, generous, beautiful man. All my love to Shirlee and children...you will be in our prayers.

Dear Hansen family, I am so sorry to hear of "Dad" Hansens passing. I loved spending time at your home through my teenage years into my twenties. You both were such great examples to me along with having a great daughter that I cherish as one of my closest friends. I am so sorry I can't be there but know I have your family in my prayers.

Few people in my life have impacted me in the way that President Hansen did. In one of the most formative times in my life, he was an example to me of what it meant to be a true disciple of Christ. I will forever be grateful for his example and his wisdom. Thank you, President. God be with you 'til we meet again.

Dear Shirlee and family,

It is with sadness that I read of the passing of your beloved David. I likened his experience to that of Elder Neal Maxwell not only because they shared the same illness but because he brought with him the spirit of a giant of a man. I could always feel it when he was in my room at the eye center. His influence on the life of others was doubtless profound. May you find comfort as you ponder his Christlike life.

Sincerely,

Harald...
