"What would you have been without your wife, Ruth?" President Boyd K. Packer, acting president of the Quorum of the Twelve, once asked President Faust.
"It shocked me a little even to think about what life would be and would have been without her," he said 24 hours later.
He and Sister Faust had five children, 23 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.
Funeral services are pending.
