Revealing themes run through these obituaries: themes of generosity, commitment to family, service to others, love of education, willingness to think large and beyond traditional borders. Here are lives lived meaningfully and sacrificially in classrooms, libraries, on a catamaran; in the theater, in a sound booth, on hikes and birding trips; in businesses, on construction sites building schools, wells, and bridges; in hospitals, clinics, and schools among the disenfranchised and oppressed here and around the world; in kitchens filled with family, friends, and strangers—God working through them all.
For Christ plays in ten thousand places.
Lovely in limbs, and lovely in eyes not his
To the Father through the features of men’s faces. Gerard Manley Hopkins
Otter Creek Church of Christ has determined that these members of our family will be remembered. We will be their witnesses.
