Sivatha Orr, 86, of Lowell, Massachusetts, passed away peacefully on May 19, 2025, at Lowell General Hospital.
He was the devoted husband of Rath Sun for 46 years, since 1979.
Born in Battambang, Cambodia, he was the cherished son of the late Orr Orr and Pach Orr. Sivatha proudly served in the Cambodian military before immigrating to the United States in 1980 in pursuit of a better life for his family.
A man of deep faith and community spirit, Sivatha was a dedicated preacher at the Trairatanaram Temple, where he touched many lives through his teachings and compassionate presence.
In addition to his beloved wife, he is survived by his son, Kerry Orr of Tennessee, and his daughter, Lisa Phou of Louisiana. He also leaves behind five grandchildren-Bryan Phou, Denny Phou, Jerrica Orr, Jessica Orr, and Daniel Orr-and three great-grandchildren-Ethan Phou, Maxwell Ulita and Miley Ulita who brought great joy to his later years.
He was preceded in death by all of his siblings, whose memories he carried dearly throughout his life.
Sivatha will be remembered for his unwavering faith, his gentle strength, and the love he gave so freely to his family and community.
