Key Guy Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 From the Adventist News Network http://news.adventist.org/2009/03/american-radio-legen.html Quoted in part: For what it's worth, broadcasting icon Paul Harvey loved the desert. Many times he would slip in through the side door of the Camelback Seventh-day Adventist Church in Phoenix, Arizona wearing a cowboy hat and boots, his minister said. During winters, Harvey's city-loving wife, Angel, acquiesced so the couple could live in their Phoenix home away from Chicago. At church, they would enter quietly after the service began, careful not to disturb visiting church-goers eager to meet a celebrity. Though he wasn't a baptized member of the Adventist Church, Harvey and his wife attended the Camelback Church for nearly 20 years, contributed to numerous Adventist institutions and held close friendships with Adventist broadcasters.

Moderators Jeannieb43 Posted March 7, 2009 Moderators Posted March 7, 2009 Wow, I wonder what will happen to his wall full of awards and trophies. Did he have children? Yes. Paul Harvey, Jr. has been broadcasting on Paul Harvey (Sr.)'s show recently, while his dad was ill. Quote Jeannie<br /><br /><br />...Change is inevitable; growth is optional....

Paul Harvey and his wife Angel have attended Camelback church for nearly 20 yrs. During the winter. They have a home in the Biltmore District a few miles from Camelback church.. When we arrived here 9 yrs. Ago we became acquainted with them and have given them pastoral care. They were wonderful people and very supportive. Neither Paul or Angel (Lynne) were members of the SDA church. They considered my wife and I their pastoral team and confided in us quite regularly. When Angel died in May of 2008 I was invited back to Chicago to do her funeral service in the Fourth Presbyterian Church in downtown Chicago . We will also be flying back to Chicago tomorrow to attend Paul’s service and the preside at the graveside on Monday. We have considered it a wonderful privilege to minister to these dear people. Their connection with the SDA church has been long-time. Paul was personal friends with George Vandeman and many other Adventist pastors and laypersons. Their connection to the church was through Angel’s sister who was a baptized SDA member. I understand that a couple of aunts were also SDA. The rumor that he was Adventist got started on the web with erroneous information that has been passed on and perpetuated. Doug Bachelor stated it on one of his telecasts and that also gave it further believability. I spoke with him a few days ago and he said he read it on the web. Please do all you can to clarify this error. Thank you for your interest. Most sincerely, Charles White, senior pastor Camelback Judith Hanson Quote
Woody Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 Okay. Charles White used to be my pastor. I guess I can believe him. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
