Oral Roberts, dead at 91 (usatoday.com)

Love him or hate him, he started the televangelist movement. I never cared for TV preachers, but I found him to be the least...I dunno, scummy? He seemed more authentic.

He dealt with a lot of tragedy in his life, losing two kids (one by plane crash and one by suicide) but he enjoyed a long life and a long marriage.

I don't know. Compared to Billy Graham, he was a little scummy. Compared to Jimmy Swaggart, a saint.
