Oran Lee Mcmillan was born on May 14th, 1999. Everyone could tell right away that he was a special gift from God. He grew into "a big guy because he's 5 foot 10", by his own accord. He was the sweetest person who had a bright smile that could light up a room. He was full of love for everyone and brought joy to everyone around him. To him, everyone was his friend. He loved to ask questions, about everything. Every morning he would say, "I think today will be a great day!". And at the end of the day he would always say, "I loved today!".
Oran went to bed happy and excited about the upcoming holidays on Tuesday evening after telling his parents Goodnight, and on Wednesday, November 27th, 2024 he woke up in Heaven. He got to celebrate Thanksgiving with God. It was truly a great day for him!
The tears we shed are for ourselves and the wonderful light of this sweet boy that we won't get to see again until we go home to be with him. Until then we will cherish the wonderful memories he left us with.
