I am honored to release this tribute episode to my late father-in-law Senator Orrin Hatch. He was a true gentleman and lived his life with integrity and respect for others. He fought for what he knew was right and wasn’t influenced by party politics. He showed us how to mix church and state and never backed away from his faith.

His ability to work across party lines made him one of the most powerful United States senators in history. His devotion to doing the right thing despite the political pressures is inspiring. His dedication to his country, family, and living the principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ became his legacy. I am so grateful for the three decades, he influenced my life for good. He loved me and everyone around him and knew how to support and love and lift others. I hope you enjoy this inspiring episode that is a tribute to the incredible man he was, known to many as the gentleman of the Senate.❤️
