Not sure what to say?

Dear Family, I adored Orie. He never came into Auto Zone in anything less than wonderful mood. With a smile on his face and a song in his heart. He was always a joy to see and a very welcome guest. We had many fun and funny automotive conversations. Please know the joy he brought to other. He will be greatly missed.

How great life has to have been with this person leading you all these years. Rest In Peace.

Mr. Orie, will be remembered always, as a very nice man with a heart of gold.

Our sincerest condolences to the entire family. So sorry for your great loss. We always enjoyed talking to your dear father whenever we ran into him. He always made an effort to remember our kid's names. He was so personable and was an amazing person!

Our sympathy to you, Pete and Lois, and to your whole family. May the Lord comfort your hearts.

So sorry to hear of your loss, Orie was a class act employer. As I worked for Ada Beef after high school due to Bob being one of my best friends. He never scolded me for messing up with others around, it was always away from the other workers not to shame me in front of others. He showed me what a true Christian looks like, with his example has helped me with my employees.

Sending my condolences to the Vanderboon family, I worked for Orie in the early 1990s.

My thought and prays go out to the family. Dealt with Ada beef for many years with ever hard and Kroger. I will never forget bob lost his life to early. God bless.
