"My favorite Judge Hinckley memory is when my sister, who was pregnant to Harry III went to his house for help because his drug addicted, gay hustler son impregnated her and offered no help. Judge Hinckley told her, "I didnt f--k you. What do you want me to do about it?" Somehow you all forgot his first granchild was Heather Spencer. Oh and his tart second wife attempted to take my sisters daughter from her with her shrivled up old eggs. Disgusting family. Not a man to be honored. May you and you son rot in hell!"
In loving memory of
The Honorable Harry Glenn Hinckley, Jr.
January 14, 1928 - August 4, 2008
