Sarge would spend a weekend playing with a fellow mwmber,a friend of his ,each summer for the past few years. On every occasion, he would kid with us, talk golf , and just be himself. It was always a delight to speak with him,he was a great ambassador for the game of golf. many of today's professional athletes could have learned a lot from Sarge. He will be missed.<BR/><BR/>Jim T.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17206449.post-74723933224244863342008-08-09T20:01:00.000-04:002008-08-09T20:01:00.000-04:00Orville was my husband's best friend.

Orville and my husband played a lot of golf while stationed there and they have been friends ever since. He was such a generous man with both his money and time. There was nothing too much for his friends and family if they needed something from him. He would stay over our house when he played tournamets here in Arizona and stopped on his way to and from California. There is not one negative thing anyone can say about him. We are all devasted by his passing and know that there never will be another person like him. Too bad....we should have more people like him in this world.Nimohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01961937656004267589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17206449.post-71681715957798608242008-08-09T16:09:00.000-04:002008-08-09T16:09:00.000-04:00His U.S. Open win did little to enhance his celebr...His U.S. Open win did little to enhance his celebrity status.
