Famed evangelical minister Timothy Keller died Friday morning after a battle with pancreatic cancer, a tweet from his account announced on Twitter. He was 72.
“Dad waited until he was alone with Mom. She kissed him on the forehead and he breathed his last breath,” the tweet read. “We take comfort in some of his last words, ‘There is no downside for me leaving, not in the slightest.’”
Keller had announced in June 2020 that he had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and would be receiving chemotherapy.
A series of tweets from Keller’s account were signed by his son Michael, who posted Thursday that his father had been discharged from the hospital and would receive hospice care at home.
