Definitely true, Dr. Graham could turn out to be a big miss for the list even though the year will soon be drawing to a close. He looks like he could go at any time.

football_fan 42 Posted November 6, 2005 Rev. Billy Graham will be celebrating his 87th birthday tomorrow, and has confirmed in a recent interview that he has officially retired from the crusade circuit. With his ongoing health issues, it does not look like he will have much time left before he dies. He is definitely worth considering as a candidate for the 2006 deathlist.

Lady Die 63 Posted December 1, 2005 "Mr Graham is 86 and frail. He has symptoms of Parkinson's disease, fluid on the brain and prostate cancer. Last year he broke his hip and fractured his pelvis in two falls. He has trouble seeing, hearing and speaking" And that was 6 months ago! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bald rick 9 Posted December 1, 2005 What's wrong with using the existing Billy Graham thread, here? If I could find it (using the very handy search facility) surely it's not beyond your capabilities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cowboy Ronnie 78 Posted December 1, 2005 I'm going to back iain on this one, as announcing one's own impending death does seem like enough of an update to merit a separate thread. Too often there's an update and it's just some dumb comment that adds nothing. Much like this post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tempus Fugit 214 Posted December 1, 2005 That article is 6 months old, Billy Graham is still going, He's well enough to do his syndicated "In my Opinion" column. There was more up to date news in the original Billy Graham thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would usually take a article of this kind serioisly but since it's dated back in June and our beloved preacher is still alive I would say it's no hint to a soon coming demise.

Canadian Paul 97 Posted December 1, 2005 Billy Graham is the Ronnie Biggs of the U.S.A. He's always telling everyone that he's going to die and that he's gravely ill. While, like Ronnie, there's certainly a lot of truth behind it, if you go back in news history you'll find articles far older than six months that call him gravely ill. Admittedly, he did do his "final farewell" tour or whatever his breed calls it, but we'll see how that pans out. Overall, I'd say that it'd look pretty silly if he died in 2006 and DL missed him, but he wouldn't be a choice on my personal little "intuition" dead pools. I'm not sure there's too much more we can say about him that will influence GR's decision... unless something drastically new comes out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrunoBrimley 86 Posted December 3, 2005 I was watching the old television last night and there it was in big bold letters along with a profile of the Reverend Graham saying that his next televised appearance is to be in the next few days or so and it was advised to check listings for local air times. Apparently he is healthier than many have goven him credit for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Admittedly, he did do his "final farewell" tour or whatever his breed calls it, but we'll see how that pans out. I believe if Mr.Graham is now the Ronnie Biggs of the USA then this special honor was granted recently.......around April when Pope John Paul finally contributed to the DL. Unlike Graham Ronnie Biggs is much younger and though A series of health problems was suffered in a short period of time, as of late he seems he is getting through his days. A very hard figure to classify since also he is trying to get out of jail. He may try to look more sickly on camera and when pictures are takin. I actually would get a good laugh over that if it were true. It all comes down to no matter what the situation is involving his health or atleast for next year.. The DL can not risk leaving him off the list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Youth in Asia 1,087 Posted December 4, 2005 It looks like he's trying do the Dying Swan act - a bit like the Pope did - so expect him to go on for many years yet, and draw attention to his slow demise on a regular basis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
