Tommy Orrell Obituary
touched the hearts of many with his warm spirit and unwavering courage.
Tommy lived a life marked by challenges, as he faced significant disabilities throughout his years. Yet, he showed remarkable resilience and grace, reminding everyone around him of the importance of kindness and compassion. He will be remembered not just for his struggles, but for the joy and light he brought into the lives of those fortunate enough to know him.
He is survived by his caregivers who cherished him deeply and stood by him through every chapter of his life.
A gathering to honor Tommy's life will be held on Monday, Jan. 13, at 11 a.m. at the Pitts Chapel. Friends and family are invited to join us in celebrating Tommy's legacy and the memories we shared.

A visitation will be held Monday, Jan. 13, from 10 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. prior to the service.
