REVEREND HOLMES WILLIAMS of The People’s Cathedral was laid to rest today.

Religious leaders from other denominations as well as some associated with the church from across the region and the world attended the funeral service today at the Wildey Gymnasium.

They were among hundreds paying their final respects to the religious leader who passed away on December 19.

One speaker remembered Williams as a pioneer who introduced a different, more modern style of worship which attracted many people from the more traditional religions.

He started the church in 1960 and reached out to thousands with his Christ Is The Answer radio broadcasts.

There was a private interment at Coral Ridge Memorial Gardens, Christ Church. (GC)
