Orval was the consummate public lawyer, an expert in municipal home rule and other public issues, who contributed much to the City of Eugene and to the larger community. I will always remember his thoughtful conversations and writings, his love of classical music, and his work for a more just and peaceful world.

I met Orval at the Atrium, where he facilitated free music, mostly classical, on Saturday afternoons. He also ran Sunday evening music in the park, which were great summer shows. We will miss his presence.

When someone asks me, "who is the best teacher you ever had" I always answer Orval Etter. I had him for Public Law in grad school at UO. It was a hard class but he was patient and expected the best. He will be missed.
