The Latest: Bill Clinton says he is grateful for Graham

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — The Latest on mourning for the Rev. Billy Graham (all times local):

1:20 p.m.

Former President Bill Clinton says he came to pay his respects to the late Rev. Billy Graham more like a regular mourner than a man who once led the free world.

Clinton was escorted Tuesday by Graham's son Franklin to view the casket in the parlor of Graham's boyhood home.

The two spoke for about 15 minutes before appearing to share a prayer over the closed casket.

Clinton says Graham changed his life when he saw his crusade in Arkansas at a football stadium when he was 11. He says Graham was the same man on that football field as he was during one-on-one visits in the White House.

Former President George W. Bush paid his respects at Graham's casket Monday.
