He had a severe stroke last Thursday (I think).

He never regained consciousness.

Just got THIS in the email this AM. The POINT is the cause of death. They
state STROKE instead of prostate cancer.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Gene Scott, the shaggy-haired, cigar-smoking
televangelist whose eccentric religious broadcasts were beamed around the
world, has died, a family spokesman said. He was 75.

Scott died Monday after suffering a stroke, said the spokesman, Robert
Emmers.

The longtime pastor of Los Angeles University Cathedral began hosting a
nightly television broadcast of Bible teaching in the mid-1970s. His
University Network eventually aired a nightly talk show and Sunday morning
church services on radio and television stations in about 180 countries.
