Funeral services for the late televangelist Rex Humbard will be held in Akron, Ohio, where it all began.
The NYT has an obituary as well. Rex Humbard, unlike many televangelists, was apolitical.
He was born in Little Rock, Arkansas, but hit the big time with his ministry based in Akron.
Humbard was very prolific, with four children, ten grandchildren, and eleven great-grandchildren.
