With news coming this week of Dr. Tom Olbricht’s death, we know many are remembering him, and reflecting on his impact. If you took courses from him at ACU, or taught with him, read his articles or books, heard him preach, or otherwise felt the impact of his work, please comment with a memory or a story or a reflection.
Perhaps these images from the Prickly Pear will jog your memory.
