In Memory of George Beverly Shea... Thank you for sharing your gift of gospel music!

George Beverly Shea (February 1, 1909 – April 16, 2013)

was a Canadian-born American gospel singer and hymn composer. Shea was often described as "America's beloved Gospel singer" and was considered "the first international singing 'star' of the gospel world," as a consequence of his solos at Billy Graham Crusades and his exposure on radio, records, and television.
