Kenneth Osbeck

Kenneth Osbeck's book, Amazing Grace, has meant so much to me in my morning devotions for the past 15 years.

I never got the privilege of meeting Mr. Osbeck, but as a pastor I have used his books and the stories told in them numerous times in my sermons and Bible studies. I am so grateful for his life and ministry to me and countless others.

Sympathies to dear Betty. You were dear friends of my parents. Bob and Betty Kregel.

Dear Betty,
I'm not sure you remember me, Jan Whetstone. I had the honor get to know you and Dr. Kenneth when you visited Baguio City, Philippines and stayed at Doane Rest as I was the ABWE missionary manager at that time. Truly you impacted the hearts of many Filipinos in your portrayal of hymn writers such as Fanny Crosby but probably your impact was even deeper because of your servant hearts. Though you sorrow during this temporary separation from your beloved, you are able to...

You might not remember me, but Dr. Osbeck trained and mentored me in two male quartets at GRBBC (Cornerstone) in 1968-1972. Another quartet member, Don Zwyghuizen, told me about Dr. Osbeck's recent death and sent me the obituary link. I have been a missionary for 41 years, and have taught some of Dr. Osbeck's material overseas. I had the utmost respect for his passion for excellence and his great integrity in his music ministry. What a contribution he made to church music! I always found him...

Our prayers are with you Betty!

So sorry for your loss, but you know you will see him again. What a reunion.

A life lived well to the glory of God and the ministry of His Church through the majesty and melody of music. Well done, faithful man of God.
