Robert James Orne (Bobby O / Mr. Bob) age 56, passed away on Tuesday, January 7, 2025.
A celebration of Bob's life will be held on Feb 8, 2025 service at 11AM lunch to follow, @ 1104 County Rd C, Arkdale, WI 54613. All who knew and loved Bob are welcome to attend.
He was born on April 9, 1968, in Waukesha, Wisconsin, to William Orne and Barbara Jean (Cherek) Orne. Bob graduated from Waukesha North High School and went on to build a life filled with hard work and cherished moments. Over the years, he contributed his talents to several workplaces, including Rooters, WS Machine & Tool, Parts Hut, Ange's Tiny Tots, Wabash National, and Castle Rock Marine. His dedication and presence were valued by colleagues and friends.
In 2005, Bob married Ange M. Cavaleri, beginning a journey together that brought immense joy and love into their lives. He found happiness in life's simple pleasures: riding his motorcycle with friends, spending time in his trailer, fishing with his boys, enjoying hunting season, and over-serving friends and family around the fire.
Bob was preceded in death by William Orne and Barbara Jean (Cherek) Orne, and his best friend Dexter Bones (his Pitbull).
Bob is survived by his wife Ange Orne; his brother William Orne (Sue); sister Kathy Ostrowski (John) sons Tanner Orne; Harley Rohrbough (Cailin); Zackery Cavaleri-Smith (Lici); Grandkids Billie bean, Zeke, and many others who held him dear.
Robert will be remembered for his bright t-shirts, crocs and socks, the laughter he brought to those around him and the memories he created with loved ones. May his memory bring comfort to all who knew him.
