I worked with a Wayne Orme at Vons grocery at Olympic and Crenshaw in L.A. in the early 60"s. He was a clerk and I was a box boy and he was a real class person. He had a new Pontiac and let me use it at lunch to take out a girl I had met. He mentioned that he was a cowboy and I thought that was cool as I was just a white kid fresh out of L.A. high school. I will never forget him.
Wayne I am still thinking of you. I miss you and your advice every day. I hope you can hear from heaven that I’m doing well. Making about 100k a year and having a great time with my 6 kids! Your God son is doing well. He is 11 now. This Christmas I’ll remind him of you. I miss you buddy.
Wayne was truly one of my dearest friends. There is so much that has happened in my life I wish I could tell him. I miss him so much. I’ll see him again someday.
For the past couple of years, I have written to Wayne's last 2 e-mail addresses & tried giving him a periodic call on his home line. Only today did I do an online search of his name to find this website offering condolences.
Wayne & I developed a friendship later in his life, starting in 2009. We met for business, but remained friends after my employment ended. Wayne & I kept in touch at least every quarter by telephone, e-mail. & occasional/semi-annual visits.
He quickly became one of 2 people who I knew I could count on & place my complete confidence and trust in, especially when it came to one of my life's biggest trials in 2011.
Wayne's character was without a doubt formed strictly from a deep desire & personal love for Jesus Christ. This gift of charity was convictedly strong & deep in his soul. Wayne's love & desire that others know Jesus (family included) was spiritually intense.
If I remember correctly, Wayne was a bit heart-broken when Fr. Leo moved from his parish years ago. Wayne had a great appreciation for Father's gift of self in personal spiritual direction.
Finally, Wayne was never short in stating his personal feelings with me. Whenever I got off the phone or left his house after a visit, he'd say warmly (& when in person, with a very tight bear-hug), "Matty, I love you & Jeb loves you". These words feel most alive today, they are the ones I'll cherish the most!
I've only met Wayne once through my best buddy Dale, who also happens to be his God father. I remember Wayne giving both of us ride to the airport and chit chatting on the way. I had enjoyed our conversation and his kindness. When I heard of his passing, I was saddened .. just wished that Dale and I could have spent more time hanging out with him .. may rest and peace, Wayne🙏
I just recently found out of Mr. Orme's passing. I knew him through Precious Blood Catholic Church as well as through the emergency room at Culpeper Hospital. He will be greatly missed! My sincere condolences to his family!
I've known Wayne for a few decades, he was my God father and a good friend, and although we've lost touch the last few years, we've definitely had some good times together. I wish I could attend the services but I'm @work this week (normally I have Sun/Mon off). Wayne, you will be missed; and your good buddy Alvin (my father) won't be far behind you, as I continue to take care of his health needs. My condolence's to everyone.
Dale
