I remember back in the early 1980s when Brother Mortensen was a Regional Representative for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. During that time I served in an Elders Quorum Presidency in the Boise Sixth Ward in East Boise. I was a married Boise State student. The Sixth Ward had many young married BSU students.

I recall being in a few training meetings with Steven Mortensen. There was of course a big age difference between him and the members of our Quorum Presidency. Never the less, we really thought he was a great man. We didn't think of him as "cool" in the worldly sense. We thought he was spiritually "cool." He was awesome. We often discussed what great counsel he gave to us on leadership and lifting our fellow Quorum members. Because I didn't live near Steven, I didn't run into him often after that. When we moved into his same Ward over seven years ago, I was so happy to see him again. He was still sharp, had great insights that he shared and I was amazed at how, at his age, he had no trouble using his iPad to pull up the Scriptures and lesson material. Although thirty years had passed since I learned from his counsel, I had never forgotten what an impressive man he was. He clearly loved the Lord and showed it by serving with all his heart, might, mind and strength. He probably never knew how many lives he influenced for good. I will always remember him.

It was such a pleasure to meet and spend time with Mr. Mortensen (the father of our dear friend, Fran) a few years ago. He was a delightful, intelligent scholar, and gentleman, who definitely loved the Lord.

I have enjoyed sitting around and visiting with Steve. There are so many memory´s of conversations. He had a very sharp mind. He also had a graceful way of expressing of expressing his thoughts. It was a blessing to have had the chance to get to know him.
