It will take place in his hometown of Philadelphia on Thursday, August 16th at Deliverance Evangelistic Church @ 21st & Lehigh Avenues. Viewing is from 9-11 with the funeral immediately following. His cousin whose a minister will be delivering the eulogy. I live @ 2 blocks from Deliverance and hopefully, I'll be able to view him before going to work. Deliverance is a mega church here. Just thought I would share......
Went to view his body and the funeral is cancelled! The sign read, "The Funeral for Sherman Helmsley has been cancelled. Sorry for the inconvenience." Hope it wasn't a money issue.
Maybe it was a privacy issue.
Skooldem, why would it be in the paper and on the news if it was a privacy issue? Anyway, I hope he rests in peace.
The reason is family members are disputing claims that the minister is related to Hemsley

Thanks for clearing that up for me P-Shark.
I remember watching the news and there was a story on Redd Foxx's funeral. They showed Flip Wilson doing the eulogy. And I was thinking hey this guy looked nothing like Flip. It turned out the guy was an imposter.
