My condolences to the family. A loved one loss can grieve the heart, therefore treasure the special times spent with Orellian-draw strength from the love of family and friends-and may God loving-kindness comfort you through this difficult time.-Psalm 119:50,76

Rita,Jodi,Nanette,Cherie and all of the kids. I was in a bad dream, that I couldn't wake up out of. Most of the time I was lost in questions I couldn't find answers for. Why the doctors couldn't help him. I didn't know what to say or do.So many things came back to mind from when we were growing up. His body is in the cemetery and he lives in a beautiful place. I will work hard so I can see him and all the others again. Butch
Cousin Oreillian will always be remembered not only as an awesome always-there for you friend, but for all his jokes and funny stories he loved sharing about his family growing up. I'll always treasure those stories and pass them on. It's in sharing these stories of those loved ones that have passed that help to keep their memory alive and with us daily, he understood that important lesson. We'll miss him greatly but are so appreciative of what he has brought to this family. Frances Gros Dupre, Morgan City, LA

Rita Gail, sorry for your loss,will be keeping you in our prayers.
So sorry for your loss. I am praying for your family.
He will always be know as Mr. OJ to me. Met him first time on a ballfield when I was 9 or 10 with his big booming voice cheering me on. From that point on the Adams became our dear family friends. That was 30 plus years ago. And even though I've seen him off and on throughout the years every time he saw me and say in that big booming voice he would say "hey dawling how you been" and gave me a hug and kiss. I have wonderful childhood and adult memories of you Mr. OJ. God bless you and your family...my family....
