He also wrote more than two dozen books, including his 1997 memoir,”Just as I Am,” which was a New York Times bestseller.
Billy’s son, Franklin Graham wrote: My father has joined my mother in heaven. He went to sleep in his home in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina and woke up in the arms of Jesus. While many around the world mourn his physical death, he is now celebrating the eternal life he spent over 70 years telling millions of people about.
