I was saved at the Billy Graham Crusade at the Pontiac Silverdome in Michigan in 1976, so Cliff holds a very dear place in my heart. And my husband, Marlon, and I had the privilege to serve as volunteers at the Franklin Graham Festival in Charleston, SC, a few years ago. Cliff made a special appearance and led us all in some great old hymns. I was just singing at the top of my lungs, lifting my hands and praising our God. And for a moment I stood there taking in this stadium full of people singing and praising the Lord together and thought, “This is what Heaven is going to be like!” It was awesome. And I can just see Cliff leading a heavenly choir even now. God bless you all, his family, the BGEA team and all his loved ones. He will be deeply missed here, but I know he was welcomed with open arms by Jesus and is now leading praises to God in Heaven. You all are in our thoughts and prayers. You are loved.
