I will remember Orrin as my LDS Bishop, with whom my Dad served as clerk. Lots of great memories growing up in the 10th ward. He went on to be an effective Senator, who I was always proud to support.

In this beautiful life we meet people who become dear to our hearts. For over 65 years we have known and loved Orrin and Elaine Hatch. After Orrin and Bill's mission to the Great Lakes, we were at BYU together as young married couples. Following graduation Orrin and Bill each attended Law School, and in the ensuing years, we both moved to Salt Lake City where we have had wonderful times together.
