Celebrities Celebrate Life And Passing Of "America's Pastor" Rev. Billy Graham
Celebrities are celebrating the life of "America's pastor," the Rev. Billy Graham, who died in his home Wednesday at the age of 99.
Mucisians, TV personalities, athletes and more Instagrammed throwback pictures, tweeted about their experiences and gave thanks for Graham's "life and ministry."
Graham's legendary career began taking shape at age 16, when the Presbyterian-reared farm boy committed himself to Christ at a tent revival around Charlotte, North Carolina.
By his final crusade in 2005 in New York City, Graham had preached in person to more than 210 million people worldwide.
Some knew him personally, while others admired his work from afar. Here's a look at what some celebrities had to say about the preacher — one of the best known religious figures of his time.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.
Billy Graham. What an incredible life you had. Thanks for all your guidance and love.… instagram.com/p/BfdiLo0BgB0/
#BillyGraham’s humility & focus on Jesus is an example for all. He wasn’t keen on the bldg of his museum b/c he didn’t want any credit. I was told when he walked thru the first time, Franklin asked, “Dad, what do you think?” He replied, “Too much Billy.” The world will miss him.
What a life. I was able to see Billy Graham at a crusade at the Rose Bowl when I was younger, and I'll remember it forever. Heaven is rejoicing right now, and so are the thousands of souls he brought to Jesus. RIP twitter.com/FoxNews/status…
