Emotional farewell for America’s pastor

IN his farewell American revival meeting, the world-renowned preacher Reverend Billy Graham has left it to others to note the emotion of the moment.

Speaker after speaker has called the crusade in a city park “historic” and thanked the ailing evangelist for allowing them to be a part of it.

Among the well-wishers was former US President Bill Clinton who clasped Rev Graham’s hand onstage on Saturday night and called him “a man I love”.
