  1. Mark Odongo

    To the ministry: Billy Graham Association invited my dad, who was a pastor in 1986, to the leadership conference in Amsterdam. This ministry has been a great blessing to me and my family. May God’s grace carry you though this moment of grief. God is alive.

  2. Gloria Wainer

    I remember attending one of Billy Graham’s famous crusades as a child. My mom was also saved at one of them as an adult, so the various ministries have always had a very special place in our hearts. My condolences and may Jesus continue to bless you & yours abundantly for your faithfulness!

  3. Mark Lair

    I’m 59 years old. I met Reverend Graham when I was a boy in Winona Lake, IN. I was catfishing in the canal and he came walking down to the water and sat on a dock. He dangled his feet in the water and spoke to me about the weather and fishing. I knew who he was and I never forgot that morning.

  4. Bonnie Hissom

    The world’s loss is heaven’s gain. Rest in peace, my dear brother in Christ. Your echo will sound loudly throughout eternity. You legacy will live on forever. Your long shadow is cast over the world in which you served tirelessly for Jesus Christ and His Gospel. Well done, good and faithful servant.

  5. Timothy Hodges

    As a child born in Raleigh, NC, I recall Billy’s TV crusades were instrumental in my decision for Christ in 1971. Since then, his influence has stayed with me. I pray God’s comfort and healing on the Graham family. I rejoice in his homecoming in Heaven, and pray for future Gospel harvest for BGEA!

    It’s been almost 32 years since I accepted Christ when I was reading a book written by Billy Graham. I will forever be grateful. My heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.

  7. Rose Saverus

    A great servant of God recognised and acclaimed by all regardless of their religious beliefs. His legacy lives on while the body of Christ waits in eager expectation for the next harvest of souls. Thinking of his close family who are missing his physical presence with them at this difficult time.

    Dear Graham family, our family sends our condolences to your family. Mr. Graham felt like he was a member of our family. He touched my life when I was younger. Sending love, prayers, and thoughts for you all. May the Holy Spirit comfort you. (Debbie Greathouse—Perry, Georgia)

  9. Melinda Bailey

    When I was a little girl, my mother & father took me to a tent revival in downtown Dallas, TX, & I got to see Mr. Graham. Followed him in crusades, TV, books and Decision magazine since then. Greatest influence in walk with the Lord. Will be greatly missed but the image I have face to face with Jesus makes me so happy!

    Condolences and prayers for all the Graham family and those who served the association so well all those years. May the Lord comfort you during this most difficult time. He will be sorely missed by all. May God be with you in these days. My good friend Colin Cotter also sends his condolences to you all.
