Nelson had recently told the apostles that he “just can’t see anymore” and that it was “all right for you guys to tell the Saints I can’t see.”

Even at 101, Nelson continues to hold the title of “prophet, seer, and revelator” in the faith — though, as he recently acknowledged, seership has become more symbolic than literal.
