ORU GRAD Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Great Man and Coach. We shared our China trips with each other. Praying for the family and close friends. ORU will miss another great Leader. Spoiler Spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Titan Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Terrible news. Coach Canada was one of a kind, and an institution in and around ORU Athletics for the past three decades. He coached and taught a LOT of ORU athletes over the years. Here's a link to a story from just a couple of weeks ago re: his retirement and dedication of a new conference room in his honor in the AC: http://www.oru.edu/news/oru_news/20190227-bob-canada-retirement.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Titan Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Just heard from Mike: services are 10:00am Friday, 3/23 at Southern Hills Baptist Church, 56th and Lewis in Tulsa. There will also be a reception at 6pm Thursday evening at the Aerobic Center on campus. Mike says everyone is welcome to either gathering.
