My sincerest condolences. Mr. Orris was one of my favorite teachers at CHHS. He was tough, but had a soft side :) I remember him fondly and always enjoyed catching up with him when we ran into each other after I graduated from high school.

My condolences to the Orris family, John was my next door neighbor for 20 years and I always enjoyed talking to him about any topic. May god bless him and be with the family during this tough time.
