I just heard of Oz’s passing. I want to offer my sincere condolences to Bonnie and the rest of his family. During my time in Ontario, and especially the seven years it took me to finish my M Div, Oz, who was a stimulating and passionate prof, became also a very good friend. He was a man whose light burned brightly. I’m sure he is bringing that special mischievous spark to the heavenly banquet!

I have known Oz since 1976 when I joined the support staff at Waterloo Lutheran Seminary. I knew Oz as a man of commitment -- above all to his family who he loved without reservation, but also to his teaching career, to his calling as a minister of the Gospel, and to his passionate activism for social justice. As I looked around the church this past Saturday, I saw many of his former students in attendance. I have no doubt that they will continue the work that Oz began at WLS so many years ago. The torch has been passed.

Bonnie and family,
My deepest condolences to you all. Oz was a force of love and grace and I’m grateful to have learned fro much from him. I was one of the many students he shaped and formed into ones who lead with a fire for justice… I am sorry I was unable to be with you for Oz’s funeral, my heart was with you.

In thanksgiving for the life and ministry of Rev. Dr. Oz Cole-Arnal- an inspiring teacher and social activist who helped form and shape both Karen and I in our lives and our ministries. Through his work with the KW Sanctuary Coalition, Oz helped 11 refugees from four families receive landed immigrant status in Canada and so to start lives protected by Canadian law. Coffee with Oz and Moose was always a dear opportunity. Oz helped some of us get in contact with our feminine side (thank you, Shania) and reminded us always that thoughts remain free ( "die Gedanken sind frei"). We will look for you among the great cloud of witnesses that surround us. Rest in peace, Oz. Peter and Karen, Kristina, Katarina, and Hanne
