advisor to many presidents, admired by Martin Luther King, they say he preached to over 215 million people - and none of the scandals that beset some evangelists/televangelists.

A lot of people came forward during his altar calls. He was a good and faithful servant.

He was a blessing to us all and to our great nation. Home now with the one above and the woman of his heart and life.

He met with every president since Harry Truman - most recently Obama in 2010. I don't know if he met with the current president but rather doubt it.

Billy Graham, one of the world's most famous Christian evangelists, has died, a family spokesman said today. He was 99. ...Donald Trump and his wife Melania met Graham at the preacher's 95th birthday party in 2013, but the pair never met after Trump took office as president.

Thank you @Hoovermom. I meant that the current president had probably never met Graham during his time in office. Graham hasn't been well in recent years. Obama travelled to his home in NC in 2010

His family will miss him, but I imagine, Heaven is rejoicing today. Wow.

Yeah, 98 year olds aren't usually taking many trips.

I have his autobiography, JUST AS I AM, written over a decade ago. Humble, peaceful man. Liked him even better after learning more about him. He wouldn't hold crusades in cities that refused to integrate choirs. He left a college because president refused to have guest speakers on campus who were not same religion as college. Spoke so highly of his wife. He was a kinder, gentler evangelist - so different than those leading mega churches today.

Humility and integrity were a big part of his life. My sincere condolences to his family.

Billy Graham,

Great preacher of the Word, great man of God.

I thought it was very interesting that an episode of "The Crown" was about him evangelizing in England.

About that no breath of scandal. In an article he said he never counseled without someone else being there.
