Do not fill this in! ==Death== In 1957, when Bosworth's family thought it was his time to go, Branham visited his bedside, prayed with him, and was greatly encouraged by his testimony. Bosworth recovered his strength, and it was not until several months later, in 1958, when he eventually died. According to his son's description in the 9th edition of "Christ the Healer", the family was gathered around Bosworth's bedside talking, laughing, and singing about three weeks after Bosworth was in bed full-time. Bosworth then looked up, never saw the family members present, and began "to greet and hug people - he was enraptured ... He did this for several hours", then with a smile on his face he lay back and went to sleep. When Bosworth died, Branham was asked by the family to come to preach his [[funeral]] but was unable to attend because he was in the middle of a campaign.<ref name="christthehealer"/> Burton "B.B." Bosworth, the younger brother of F.F., died on Feb. 17, 1958, in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. at the age of 70. His death was caused by respiratory medullary failure, according to his death certificate.
