Beloved Teacher, Olin Peach, Passes Away

It is with a heavy heart that UCA shares the news of Olin Peach’s death yesterday (April 9, 2010) at his cabin.

The beloved teacher Mr. Peach, had an unrivaled passion for life, Adventist education, outdoor sports, missions, and most of all the Savior.  UCA would not be what it is today without his life-long leadership & influence.  There are no words which can start to capture the ways that Mr. Peach allowed Jesus to work through him.  He will be sorely missed.

“For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.  Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.  Therefore comfort one another with these words.” – 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

We look forward to the day when our Savior returns we can again be reunited with Mr. Peach.

As Mr. Peach’s family shares more information with UCA concerning his death & funeral arrangements, updates will be posted on the UCA website, Facebook, and Twitter accounts.

Please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers.
