Ann, Marjorie Ann, and Peyton Orr please know that you all are in our thoughts and prayers at this sad time. I am sure he is happily enjoying a good story or two with Nan and Dupree Davis along with so many other friends waiting for him.

Mr John Orr was such an amazing man and inspiration to Cathy Davis (Peterson) and Susan Davis (Crittenden). He was best friends with our Daddy Dupree Davis from his teen years until Dupree's passing on Dec. 5, 2010--John was always in his and our thoughts, as they were as close as brothers. Please send us your numbers/email addresses. [email protected] 214.517.9753 (Susan), or [email protected] 901.603.9642 (Cathy)
