Four thousand friends from around the nation will be gathering in Fort Lauderdale, Florida today at noon to bid final farewell to the most beloved Dr. D. James Kennedy. His unforgettable, mellifluous voice which so often proclaimed uncompromising truth to the nation will be long remembered. And as previously noted, his departure from this earth leaves a gaping leadership hole in the American Evangelical landscape. It is appropriate that Dr. Jim Dobson—perhaps the other most influential Evangelical figure of the late 20th century—will be delivering the keynote eulogy.
