Odie was in the company of family members when he passed peacefully due to natural causes. Born in Colorado Springs, CO on September 29th, 1946 to David and Marjorie Eaves,
Odie is preceded in death by his parents David and Marjorie Eaves.

  10. Andrew, Chris and the rest of Odie’s loved ones….Please know how saddened I was to hear your Father lost the tough battle he has been fighting. Indeed he was a trouper and never seemed to complain. His daily “good morning” and his wit will never be forgotten. I hope you can find some comfort in knowing that he is no longer in pain and his resurrected body is with our Lord.

    I will surly miss his wit and pistolettes!

    My deepest condolences and sincere prayers are with you all. I hope Odie will tell my Dad hello for me!

    Warm regards,

  16. Dear Terry, kids and grandkids, Our prayers are with you at this time of loss. May you immerse yourselves in all the good memories of Orville and may that help lighten the burden of grief, as you mourn his physical absence. Praise God for the consolation of faith that gives us hope of seeing our loved ones again. I’m certain our KK has already run up to greet him as “a friend of Grandma and Grandpa’s”….Much love and heartfelt sympathy from Debbie and Johnny Finton

  17. Dan & Chris, I did not know your dad for a long time, lucky for me I did get to spend some good times hunting with him, he was one of those guys it just didn’t take long to know we lost a good friend, dad and just a great man. He will be missed but never forgotten.

  18. Donna and I met Orville thru Kenny and Terry McCully during that time when we were all buying our first cars, falling in love, graduating from high school, going to San Jac, getting married, buying our first homes, and having kids. We had so many great memories together, and thinking back on those days, we could always count on Orville to be an instigator, but to always do the right thing. He now knows how much influence he had on so many by doing right by people. He will be greatly missed, but never forgotten. Thanks Orville, for all those positive influences!

    David & Donna McCafferty
