lol!  @Carborendum it's hard to be young, handsome, have a full head of hair, witty and charming. Believe me, I know firsthand. 

And humble as well.

President Kimball...

I am old enough that Blacks gaining the priesthood happened during my life time... But young enough that I can't remember it being any other way

Exactly. I'm still trying to deal with my own humility.

Another McKayer here. I was baptized during the short period when Joseph Fielding Smith was the President of the Church. Without knowing anything else about me, that at least puts a lower limit on my age.

Kimball (post-OD2), although I have no memory of him as prophet. President Benson is the earliest I remember.

And he was the prophet until 1970.  So I'm somewhere between there.

Not commenting on that one.   Lol

Ezra Taft Benson. I'm a young'un.

[classylady]

David O. McKay. ?

Kimball, and my parents were so proud that my ears resembled his. And told everyone.

I'm totally ignoring @Palerider.  But David O. McKay was the prophet when I was born.

No.  Brigham Young was the prophet when Palerider was born.

Spencer W Kimball died 3 months after I was born.

If you're finding it hard, there must be something wrong with you. I don't find it to be hard at all,

When you've been getting it as long as I have, you hardly notice it any more.

I really don't know---without looking it up, but I would guess McKay.  I can tell you with certainty though that Pres. Kimball was the prophet when I was baptized at twelve years old. 

ETA: I just read the thread...so yes, McKay.  Though I hasten to add, it was in the last few years of his time.

President Kimball when I was born but President Monson has been the only prophet I have known.
