    I have known this gentle man all my life. This family was my second home. He was such a wonderful person and had an amazing heart. I remember as a little girl driving with my parents to Clandeboye and looking for Orville’s road crew. It was always exciting for me as a little girl to run down to Lena and Orville’s home. And no matter how long it have been between visits he always had a smile and a hug for me.
    Love Peggy

    I just heard, and I am so sorry I was not there. I knew him since I was 3 years old. My parents were good friends of you and Orville.
    Love and thinking about you

    Lena,

    You and your family are in my prayers. I so fondly remember you and Orville from “Greg’s Place” while I was in Lucan, always telling you to go straight home after your coffee. We certainly had our share of laughs over the years.

    Lena, Rick, Anne, Nathan, Gwen, Tyler, Dallas, Lincoln, Jake, and Debbie & Family;

    Sorry to hear of Orville’s passing. He was a great neighbour to my family for many years. Some of my fondest memories are him fixing my bike – I would have a flat tire and the first place I would go is to Orville’s little garage, also he loved watching his baseball games, and he was always smiling!!!! He will be missed but always in our hearts forever.
    Love,
    Brenda, William, and Charlotte

    Lena, Rick, Anne, Nathan, Gwen and family,

    So sorry to hear of Orville’s passing. He was a great man. I remember all of the mornings I would see him for coffee. He always brightened my day. It was nice to see him too when he would come to get his haircut and chat with him. He was a great husband, father and grandfather. He is at peace now, and will be fondly remembered by many. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time. Take care of yourselves and each other in the days ahead.
    Love,
    Sara
