The headline says, "Ruth Graham buried at N.C. library". I didn’t know she died Thursday at age 87 following a lengthy illness. I don’t know her that much but I had read "Just As I Am" before. It is a biography of her husband the most famous evangelist Rev. Billy Graham. I enjoyed reading the book, especially the part of their courtship :-) and their lovers' correspondence there. One thing she said that I will never forget, in fact I kept quoting it to my husband, is that:
"It is better to rest awhile above the ground than to forever rest beneath it... But as far as your present usefulness is concerned, you might as well be, useful." - Ruth Graham
