His widow (my Mother) was awarded a very small settlement. Not nearly enough to raise three small children on. The Oral Roberts Foundation fought it and claimed no fault even though the elevators were supposed to be shut down. They are an evil and corrupt corporation to this day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523358610198468233.post-18238556283316585202013-02-04T16:48:41.730-08:002013-02-04T16:48:41.730-08:00For most of the 60s and helped many of his followe...For most of the 60s and helped many of his followers during her time.

Filled with fear from asbestos Contamination firefighters were reluctant to enter. I'd say abundant death is the legacy that Oral Roberts left behind. Now we have to clean up after him. Faith killing.
