T.L. Osborn was born December 23, 1923 to Charles Richard Osborn and Mary (Brown) on the family farm in Pocasset, Oklahoma. He stepped through the veil into eternity peacefully, at home surrounded by four generations of his beloved family on February 14th 2013 shortly after asking His Lord Jesus, "Take me home!" He was 89.
Tommy married Daisy Marie Washburn on April 5, 1942 and together they carried the Gospel of Christ to tens of millions of unreached people in over 100 nations declaring with faith and confidence, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever." They pioneered many successful methods of evangelism that have become commonplace today.
He is survived by his daughter, LaDonna Carol (Cory Nickerson) of Tulsa; five grandchildren, Tommy O'Dell (Elisabeth) of Tulsa OK, LaVona Thomas (Randy) of Sand Springs, OK, Donald O'Dell (Carina) of Aurora, CO, Cassie Waldo (Marty) of Winona, MN, Kimberly Wichelt (Ted) of LaCrosse, WI; 22 great grandchildren, 14 boys and 8 girls; three great great grandchildren, two girls and one boy; two sisters, Verna Reed of Mannford, OK and Frances Funkhouser of Pawnee, OK and a large host of nieces, nephews and other family members.
International Memorial Service and Tribute Celebration will be held March 6, 2013 - 2:00 p.m. at Christ's Chapel on the campus of Oral Roberts University, 7777 S. Lewis, Tulsa, Oklahoma.
