From Left to Right: Dack Rambo, Pat Boone, and Ronnie
Pat Boone is a true Christian (Christ-like) man. A legend actor, movie star, singer, songwriter, and celebrity whose success equals significance. He’s making a difference in this world. The husband of Shirley Boone (who is the daughter of the great Red Foley), Pat himself is a descendant of Daniel Boone. Pat and Shirley are the parents of Debby Boone (who topped the charts with her smash hit, YOU LIGHT UP MY LIFE in l977).

The Israeli Tourism Department in the U.S. named him Christian Ambassador to Israel. Pat has co-chaired the National Day of Prayer on the first Thursday in May for many years. I’ve never met a man of God whom I esteem and hold in such high regard, admiration, and awe, as is true of my dear brother in Christ and cherished friend, Pat Boone. I love you Pat!
