President Ballard will be missed! He was a true Apostle of the Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. President Ballard dedicated his life to serving God, His Church, and mankind. He will be missed!
President Ballard did so much good behind the scenes that most people will never know about. He ministered to my father who isn’t a member of the church. He wrote him a kind letter. I’ll forever be grateful for his Christ-like love and service.
I have grown up watching and listening to President Ballard for 40yrs. How sad to soon see the apostles one by one, leave this mortal life. I can only imagine the sweet joy and reunion with his beloved wife Barbara ❤❤ Homeward bound President Ballard.
This is the first I had heard of President Ballard's passing. I am praying for his family. I am glad he has been able to graduate to his next phase in life and join his wife. ❤
May all the Ballard family and his wonderful fellow Apostles and leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints find peace and comfort during this time of loss. President Ballard's contributions to the gathering of Israel in the latter-day and the establishment of Zion will never be forgotten. His kindness, humility, and unwavering faith will always be a beacon for those who wish to grow closer to our Savior Jesus Christ.
I was in the missionary choir in October 2022's general conference. It was a landmark moment for me when he thanked us for singing Faith in Every Footstep. I'll miss him dearly, but glad he won't have to miss his dear wife anymore.
I can’t help but think of President Ballards humble and powerful testimony of the Prophet Joseph Smith this last conference and of his example of the complete and devoted love that makes for a beautiful marriage. He will be missed!
I’m going to miss President Ballards , Huge Amazing Spiritual Presence, and his amazing knowledge and testimony of the Gospel of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints!!! His Wonderful, Stature , and his kind and loving but commanding presence, I have always so trusted and respected!! Now even though we will miss him terribly, he is with his dear Sweet wife… and all the Apostles before him and he’s teaching the gospel to those who never had a chance , to hear or except the gospel, in their lifetime!!! “Thank You” President Ballard” you have blessed and been a huge part of all my life!!! I’m o older Sister, your Wisdom and; love has carried me through some difficult years!! Condolences to the family, sending love and prayers of comfort!!! ❤❤
I’m very grateful for Elder Ballard’s faithful example and apostolic counsel. What a happy reunion for he and Sister Ballard. Sending prayers up for all of his posterity.♥️🙏♥️
Thank you so much Pres Ballard for your devotion to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Back home now with your dear Barbara. God bless you both and all your family too.
Heart-felt condolences to the Ballard family and the Quorum members of the Church leadership. Elder Ballard will be missed. Our significant loss is heaven's glorious gain.
"Well Done Good and Faithful Servant Go And Receive Your Rest" We will miss you President Ballard you were always one of my favorites always talked about your grandpa, always talked about our ancestors, and always talked about Joseph and Hyrum. And now you are with them in the presence of our Lord. Your mission is finished but the work of the Lord continues beyond The Vail. We will honor your legacy. #RIPPresidentBallard
Thank you for your service president Ballard! May the lord bless your family at this time!! You will be missed! You were such a great example over the years! ❤
A wonderful man. Dedicated and devoted to God, family, Church and humanity. An inspired leader, constant missionary and encouraging Apostle. I have been greatly blessed by his words, example and life. He has now gone on to the world of Spirits to see his beloved wife again and to continue his ministry in that great field of labour for the salvation of the souls of God's children (Doctrine and Covenants 138). He will be remembered fondly!!
I'm so happy for President M. Russell Ballard. He lived well and now gets to be with his wife again. Nevermore shall they be separated by mortality. They shall surely rise together in the morning of the first resurrection. I'm so happy for them both. ❤
Sweet and kind-hearted servant of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, President Ballard will be greatly missed on this side of the veil, and warmly embraced by the Lamb of God on the other side💜
What a great man. It is with a surety that he can say "I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing."
His witness of Joseph Smith in the present tense at the most recent conference was insightful. Angels and men will be coworkers in the great work of redeeming Zion and building up the New Jerusalem. I expect President Ballard to join the effort!
We love you President Ballard and thank you for your life of love, teachings and service. You will be missed but we know you are moving on to the next step of your progression and exaltation.
I really love this man! We are so blessed to have had him to teach us eternal truths! I know that Jesus Christ called him to be his true apostle, and to be a special witness of him throughout the world.
Thank you President Ballard for your life of service. I remember thinking when he started his talk at Conference that that would be his last public testimony.
The Lord truly calls wonderful men to be his valiant apostles upon the earth. President Ballard has left a legacy of love, faith, and service that will be forever remembered. We love him dearly.
President Ballard, met me in the basement of the Salt Lake Temple after just sealing a couple from his home ward. The basement was dark as I assume they were closed because of the Brethren meeting there at that time. While I was lost, i saw President Ballard alone and he asked if I was one of the friends of the groom. Of which I replied I was. He then said: "Are you married." I said "no." He said: "Why not." I replied jokingly as though it wasn't only up to me: "I'm working on it." He said very seriously as though I was one of his children: " You are not working hard enough," and then proceeded to continue his journey. He was Right. I was not working hard enough and I repented shortly after that and my wife and I are celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. Thank You President Ballard!
My deepest sympathies to all his family. Our prayers are with the Ballard family. Thank you for your love and service .what a great disciple of the Lord . Are family will miss you dearly 😢🤍
My Husband & I got to shake his hand at a very special adult only meeting. I will never forget that handshake! God Bless you Elder Ballard we love you!
He has been an apostle since I was a teenager and now I'm a senior citizen. It will seem strange not to see him with the other brethern, but you know he is again happy to be with his wife and family. He will be missed.
A Great Man !! A Man That Inspired Others !! He Will Be Missed, He Will Never Be Forgotten !! To His Family; May Each Of You Be Comforted In Knowing That This Great Man Is Resting With Our Heavenly Father And Our Savior Jesus Christ. You Are All In The Prayers Of Many.
His leadership when he was over missionary work for the church was very helpful for me many years ago as a young ward missionary and mission leader. God bless his family during this time of loss.
President Ballard we love you Dearly and thank you for your teachings and love for the members and non members all over the world. Church Leaders, other denomination Leaders, Government Leaders all over the word and people of nations he met as a special witness of Jesus Christ. We are grateful for your love and teachings of the Jesus Christ to all the people of the world including all of us.

I had the chance to meet M Russell Ballard while my wife and I were living in Northern Utah, he attended our ward's sacrament meeting for the blessing of a great-grandson. He was an amazing servant of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He truly was an apostle of Jesus Christ. What a blessing that we have been blessed for his many sermons, and now he is reunited with his wife.
Elder Ballard was a strength and inspiration to me as a new missionary when he came and spoke to us missionaries in the Mission Training Center. Most treasured, he shared his love and his testimony. He seemed 10 feet tall to me.
I' m sad to hear about President Ballard passing on , he was such a great person, looking on the bright side he arrived Home + is reunited with his beloved wife, family, friends, enjoying his returning home. And continues his journey now on the otherside......... What a wonderful + blessed plan :-)
Thank you so much President Ballard for the continuing spiritual education to all members of the church we love you And you're great apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ... We will never forget you...
Elder Ballard taught me and my fellow missionaries how to listen to the spirit on my mission in 1987. I'll never forget, especially being a fellow Russell.
