  1. Selma Komisky

    Billy Graham was the ultimate Johnny Appleseed, spreading the gospel all over the world! I was blessed that I got the opportunity to hear him preach at the Anaheim Stadium. His love for Jesus was evident. His legacy will not be forgotten and inspired me to share Jesus’ Gospel.

  2. Jim Havemayer

    He inspired my American patriotism in part and how marvelous America is, and can be even better. He lives in us and in America as long as we follow his steps.

  3. Christine Graham

    The highlight of growing up in Clarendon, Jamaica, West Indies, was participating in the Billy Graham correspondence courses. I developed a lifelong love for the Bible, memorizing scriptures and reading Christian biographies starting with A Foreign Devil in China, Born Again, Joni, The Hiding Place.

  4. Cephas Kakoma

    Billy Graham’s ministry has really changed my life and my ministry. He has always been my mentor and I love him very much. I wish I had seen him before he died but God didn’t allow that. But I know I will see him in Heaven that last day. I’m really thankful to God for bringing Billy Graham on earth.

  5. Lindajoy Matarese

    My gratitude to the family for sharing tender memories of both Ruth and Billy. Their children have carried on as a strong message about Jesus Christ.

    Dear Franklin Graham and staff, I was so very fortunate to attend the Billy Graham Crusade in Los Angeles, CA in 1957. I was seven years old. My grandmother, Ethel Mergenthaler, took me with her on her church bus to the coliseum. It was a wonderful event. I had just made my confession of faith.

  7. Scott Gossard

    I had the fortunate opportunity to be a counselor at a crusade in Tacoma, Washington in the early nineties. I found myself standing directly in front of Dr. Graham’s pulpit. Awestruck by his absence of pretense and total surrender to God as thousands came forward to give their hearts to the Lord.
