Spokesman Mark DeMoss says Graham, who long suffered from cancer, pneumonia and other ailments, died at his home in North Carolina on Wednesday morning. He was 99.
Graham reached more than 200 million through his appearances and millions more through his pioneering use of television and radio. Unlike many traditional evangelists, he abandoned narrow fundamentalism to engage broader society.

I’m reminded of a historic event held less than 100 miles away in Seoul in 1973. It was my father @BillyGraham’s largest evangelistic Crusade ever w/ approx 1.1 million people in attendance at one event.
