I was lucky enough to have had a personal encounter with him as well as serve with his grandson on my mission. I have some experiences on my website:

President Hinckley has done so much for so many. I honor him as a prophet, and friend. He specially loved the youth of the church. He has been super optimistic in the face of some of the most troubling times this world has ever faced.

I found a site honoring him, where anyone can go to and leave a message in tribute to his memory.
