"I had breakfast with him, and he was fine at breakfast," Godwin said. "He went to his office, I went to mine and they found him unresponsive."
"I'm very confident that everything possible that could be done was done, and it was done in timely and efficient manner," Godwin said.
Falwell's physician, Carl Moore, said that Falwell was found at 11:30 a.m. with no pulse. Efforts to resuscitate Falwell at the mansion, in the ambulance en route to the hospital and at the hospital were unsuccessful. He was pronounced dead at 12:40 p.m.
