Alice, Rick, Marilyn, and family I am sorry for your loss. I lived in Batesville for over twenty years and considered Orville and Alice good friends. Orville and I did a lot of things together, fishing, hunting, going to the lake. He was a good man, hard worker and quick to help you out. He will be missed.
