Obituary:
Orville Michael Evers, 82, of Freedom, passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving family on Tuesday, September 15, 2015. He was born on February 2, 1933, son of the late Peter and Anna (Bergman) Evers. On May 9, 1963, Orville married Shirley Van Hoof at St. Nicholas Catholic Church, Freedom. He proudly served his country in the United States Army.
Orville was a retired iron worker, having worked at Boldt Co, Hennes and Lunda Construction. He could fix anything and spent many hours working out in his shed. Orville loved mowing his lawn, fishing, hunting, sheepshead, bowling, Polkas and fish fries. His favorite thing to do was attend his precious grandchildren's sporting events. No matter how far away they were, or what the weather was, he was there to support Cole and Cameron, never missing out on a game. The last few years, Orville was an outstanding caregiver to his beloved wife, Shirley, who now resides at Good Shepherd in Seymour.
Orville is survived by his wife, Shirley; sons: Paul Evers, Kevin (Connie) Evers and Scott Evers; grandchildren: Cole and Cameron; siblings: Dorothy Reider, Mardie Smith, Eve Gambsky, Aud Huss and Shirley (Jerry) Broeren; brothers and sisters-in-law: Gary (Sue) Van Hoof, Whitey Van Asten, Helen Evers and Janet Van Hoof; and many other nieces, nephews and other relatives and friends.
Orville was preceded in death by his parents; siblings: Marian (Joe) Joosten, Joe Evers, Verne (Norb) Kaminski and Carol Jean Van Asten; brothers and sisters-in-law: Carl Reider, Jim Smith, Fay Gambsky, Ron Huss, Jane (Amil) Witter, Bob (Irene) Van Hoof and Jim Van Hoof.
Funeral services will be at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, September 22, 2015, at St. Nicholas Catholic Church, W2037 County Road S, Freedom, with Fr. Walter Stumpf officiating.
