Dr. Orris was one of a kind. There will never be another Dr Orris. My mother had him for me and then he was my children´s doctor too. He was a loving and caring man. I often think of him and it makes me smile.

Dr. Orris popped into my head tonight because of his sweet way and funny jokes. He was my pediatrician and the best of the best. I am sorry to see he passed. Heaven gained an angel.

Wonderful,caring,loving man. My children’s pediatrician and my comfort as a very young mom. He just came to mind this a.m. Was surprised that he passed in 2004. Will always remember him with special thoughts.

Sitting in Los Angeles more than a decade after he passed he just popped into my head. What a comfort for my parents to know he took care of us kids over the years.

To the family of Dr. Orris.



Dr. Orris was my pediatrician and later my children's pediatrician. Dr. Orris was an extremely unselfish man as many times he made house calls when I was younger and my parents didn't have the means to pay him, he wouldn't charge them. He was a wonderful, wonderful human being. I'm happy to have known your dad.



Sincerely,

Linda Kuzmin
