Orrin was part of the old Hoffman Street group. As a kid I always enjoyed his company and friendship. We sort of lost touch when Orrin moved. I also retired from post office in 2009 in Fl. My brother,Tom, just passed away on Feb 24, also age 72, and still lived on Hoffman Street. Sorry for your loss and I will miss him.
