Every time I had the pleasure of a conversation with Orville, I left a more content human being. His insight, giving and good nature provided direction and were just a few of his many kind qualities. His Faith was unwavering and his love of family clearly guided his steps. Heaven has gained an Angel.
God bless you and carry you all during this difficult time.
All my Love and heartfelt condolences,
Teresa

He was a great man to anyone. I will always remember the lunches that we had after church and all the times where I came to you crying about anything. You were always there for me from picking me up to go to church to just hanging out with me at the house. I will miss you dearly.! You were family to me. I know that a lot of us are crying bc you are gone but I know that you are in heaven looking at us telling us that you are better and in no more pain. I love you and you will always have a piece of me and I will always have that piece you engraved into my heart.!

We would like to extend our sympathy to the Wolf family during this time of loss. I remember Orville from AT&T (Western Electric) although I didn't have the pleasure of working with him very much. May God bless the family with His peace and strength!

I would like to take this opportunity to offer my heartfelt condolences to all the Wolf family. The first time I met Orville I was 19 years old and a new hire at Western Electric in Little Rock where Orville was a Supervisor. I liked him immediately. He made a new hire like me, that knew nothing about how telephone equipment worked, feel at ease with what I was doing and was always very helpful. I will never forget Orville.
