September 28, 1944 – June 8, 2020
It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of Orville at 75 after a long battle with cancer. He passed away peacefully in Olds Alberta Hospital on June 8, 2020.
Orville was born on September 28, 1944. His parents Ella and Ivan Leach raised 9 children. He was married to Carolyn Martodam for 47 wonderful years and raised 6 children and 14 grandchildren.
Orville was a hard working man who never stopped working; even in his spare time he was always working on an old Tractor or Jeep.
Orville was a strong, positive and humorous person, and despite his low vitality at the end, those around him were surprised by his perseverance.
He is predeceased by his father Ivan, father in-law Clarence Martodam and mother in-law Ione Martodam, sister Jeanie and husband Joseph, nephews Kent and Joshua, and brothers in law Lee, Marty, Ted and Ken.
A celebration of Orville’s life will be held on August 21st, 2020, when family and friends can meet and honour his life. Details will be shared closer to the date.
Arrangements entrusted to Cochrane Country Funeral Home, Florence (Flo) Simpson, Funeral Director. Ph: 403-932-1039. To order memorial trees or send flowers to the family in memory of Orville Cyrus Leach, please visit our flower store.
