Herbert Orvin Obituary

Mrs. Orvin, Tyler, Katie, & Jared:
I remember me and Katie playing sports together, and not a game went by that he wasn't there. I remember Katie getting hurt and Mr. Herb being the first one to run and check on her. Even though you can't hear him tell you how proud he is of all of you I know he is. Every time I would see him and ask about his kids he would smile and tell me all about their latest accomplishments, and I could feel how much he loved you. I know that he is in heaven right now pointing you guys out to anyone and everyone and telling them how great you are. Katie I'm glad that I got a chance to play sports with you or I would have never known your dad. I always knew for certain if I did a good job when your Dad would tell me because he told me the truth even if I was terrible. I am praying for every single one of you. I pray that God grants you peace and the courage to move forward in your life.
God Bless

As part of the dental community,we were so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow. I am a hygienist and I had the opportunity to work in Herbies office on a few different occasions. I shadowed Rochelle many years ago as a requirement in school, that was the first time I met Herbie. My first impression was I noticed what a good sense of humor he had. And what a great smile! I also temped in his office more recently in hopes of getting a job there. He told me he had plans on opening a satelite office in Moncks Corner in a few years. My heart broke when I learned of his passing. My daughter Danielle played softball with Katie years ago and Herbie took them to their all-star games that were out of town. Danielle sends her deepest sympathies to you Katie. The dental community has truly lost one of the greatest members ever. He will never be forgotten. 14 pages of this guestbook and the line at the wake that was blocks long for hours only shows what kind of a man Herbie was. He was one of a kind.

Jared
I am so sorry I did not get to see you before I had to get back home. Your dedication to the game after Herbie's death, was unbelievable. You have your father's looks,spirit,character,and strong will,and I have been so proud to call all of your family, my friends.
It was an honor to work w/ Herbie, and so very sad when I had to leave. I'll never forget that he closed the office to attend my dad's funeral.How blessed I was to have known him.
God bless you and your family, and give you peace.

Karen
Meg and I wanted to let you know we are holding your family in prayer. We think of you daily. The congregation of Marion Baptist Church in Williams, Sc (near Ruffin- where my husband is pastor) is also praying for for your family. If you need ANYTHING, please don't hesitate to ask...
We love ya!

Karen, Tyler, Katie, and Jared,
My thoughts and prayers are with you.

TO THE ORVINS,
I WAS SO SHOCKED TO LEARN OF HERBIE'S PASSING . I AM SORRY THAT I DID NOT KNOW UNTIL LATE THURSDAY. PLEASE ACCEPT MY DEEPEST SYMPATHIES. I WILL KEEP YOU IN MY PRAYERS.
MAY GOD BLESS,

To the family of Herbie Orvin; My fiance, Jessica, and I attended the service today an were honored, hurt, and inspired by seeing your beautiful family move through this day. Being Pete and Sandra Wrenn's oldest son, and an extended part of your own family, this served to me as a reminder, or discovery of what Herbie had become, and what seeds he planted and nourished. We will never forget this day, and what we learned about every one of you. God Bless you all and give you peace.

Karen and family,
Please know that you and your family are in my prayers. Herbie truly was a great Dentist! My heart is heavy for all of you. May it be some comfort in knowing that others care and are praying for you. "We can do all things in Christ who strengthens us."

Dear Mrs.Orvin and Jared,
We all love Mr.Orvin. Those who didn't know him would have loved him. To Jared, I know it is hard playing baseball when you father isn't there. I live with it everyday. When you were pointing to heaven, your father was sitting on the clouds watching you. We love Mr. Herbie and always will.
R.I.P Mr.Herbie

Jarod and family,
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Dr. Hebie was a great man, and I'm going to miss him a lot. My prayers are with you all.

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

To The Orvin Family,
I just wanted to say how sorry I am to hear of the passing of a great man and a dentist. I have known Herbie all my life. My kids, Bryan and Karissa loved going to see Herbie for the appointments. My daughter even says that she wants to be a dentist. He will be sadly missed by everyone who he knew. Herbie always had smile for you no matter how his day was going. Always a few words of wisdom for you as well. I hope your family gets through this tough time. He will never be forgotten. Rest in peace Dr. Orvin. May you smile over everyone with your gleaming smile. We will miss you very much!

Karen and Family,
We are so sorry for your loss.We will keep all of you in our prayers.
Herbie was a good person. Let your faith and memories help you through this time of sorrow.
Dorothy Henderson and family

To the Orvin family, especially Mrs. Karen, Tyler, Katie, Jared and Mrs. Barnette whom I know personally, I was saddened to hear the news about Dr. Orvin. There are no words I can say that will ease the pain that you all feel, but just know that you are in my prayers and thoughts. I pray that you all would find comfort in knowing that others are praying for you. I pray that the peace of God that transcends our understanding will comfort and guard you all! Dr. Orvin was a great man and will be missed.

To the Orvin Family,
We are so sorry to hear about Herbie. He was the only Dentist my children know and they loved him. My son Dexter Welch asked that I please let you know he thought a lot of Herbie and we find it hard to believe. May God bless you and help you through this time of sorrow. You are in our prayers.

I am so sorry to hear about your lost. Dr. Herbert was one of the best dentist and was a very kind person. He will be sadly missed. I pray that God will continue to keep you and care for you during this time of sorrow. You are in my prayers...

To the Orvin Family,

We would just like to take this opportunity to extend our heart felt sympathy to you during this difficult time. Many times we don't really understand why things happen the way that they do. At these particular moments we just have to put all of our trust in the Lord and cast all of our cares upon him. Proverbs 3:5,6 says, "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy path."

God bless you all!

Mr. Orvin, helped me to say focused when i played any sports. He was to all of my games, eva since i played rec ball. He was one of the biggest cheerleader that Timberland had. He will be missed.
Barry Heyward

Karen, Tyler, Katie, Jared, Mrs. Edna, Pam, Neal and all the rest of the family, our thoughts and prayers are with you. We have all suffered a great loss, but we will never know your loss. Herbie didn't have a clue the impact he had on everyone he met. His death has caused loss to this entire community. I can't imagine anyone else who has touched so many lives.
We all knew how much he loved Karen, his children and all of his family but I wonder if he knew how much we all loved him. Herb will forever be in our hearts and minds. We know he is with Jesus and he is doing much better than we are. Thank you for sharing him with us. We pray God's strength and blessings on each of you today and always. If there is anything we can ever do please call us. All our love, Bob and Lillian

To The Entire Orvin Family
Words are not enough at a time of such sorrow. During our school days, Herbie was always kind, with a happy smile on his face. I was so proud of Herbie when he set up practice in St. Stephen and became my family dentist. He always took the time to talk & always went above & beyond what was expected of him. You were blessed to have such a wonderful husband, father, son, brother and nephew. Please know the Orvin family has the heartfelt prayers & thoughts of the St. Stephen community.

Dear Orvin Family:
Our family will dearly miss Dr. Herbie. My children ask me everyday, who will we go to now? That is a very tough question to answer. I know that there are other great dentist out there, but no one with his personal touch. Linda and Donna always made you feel as if you were the only patient in the office. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

To the entire Orvin Family We were so sorry to hear of your loss. My heart has hurt for days for you, but not for Dr Herb because he is in a better place. I have known Herb all of my life and I can't remember a single football game I have ever played that Herb wasn't there. Herb was always someone I have looked up to and respected. His presence at local sporting events will forever be missed. Everyone who ever came into contact with Dr Herb left a better person. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help. God Bless

To the Orvin Family:
I will never forget Mr Herb and all the things he did for me. I know he did things for everyone, but he had a way of making you feel special. He taught us the value of being part of a team and giving back to the community. He loved Timberland Athletics since day one but never forgot his Macedonia Foxes either. Mr Herb invited me to play travel ball with his AAU Lowcountry Foxes team. Those were some incredible memories with him. It was hard to play this last game without him but I could still hear him in my head saying "You got a hot bat, Dex!" I think I will always be able to hear those words of encouragement in my head no matter what I do. Mr. Herb was a great neighbor, coach, and friend. Thanks for sharing him with all of us because I will never forget the things that he taught me.
Love you always,
Dex

We are so sorry for your loss.Herbie was a fine man. I really enjoyed talking to him. He was a fine Christian man and I know God is pleased with the example he set for others to follow on how to be a husband and father.

Neal & Orvin family:
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Words can not heal your lost but time and prayer will. If there is anything you may need please feel free to call on us.

Mrs. Karen, Katie, Tyler, and Jared

I cannot begin to express how deeply sorry i am for your loss. He was such an amazing man. Through all the hardships of being so young on the Varsity team, he always found a way to make my day better. He was always willing to help and to teach. There has been and never will be someone like Mrs. Herbie. He loved y'all so much and i know he is with you always.....you are in my thoughts and prayers....

Mr. Herbie was a great man. I remember the countless times I would go into the dentist office with the thought that I might have a cavity and be unhappy for the rest of the day, but everytime I'd go, Mr. Herbie would always talk to me about school, sports, and ask about Jared and how he was doing and brighten my day by doing what he did best, caring for others and helping out in whatever way he could.

He is missed and loved by many, and has touched so many hearts in his lifetime. He will always remain in my thoughts and prayers. Jared and the rest of the Orvins, remember that Dr. Herbie is watching you from above and will always be in your heart. He will never be forgotten.

We will miss Herbie's joy for life and his great, wonderful smile. He was such an asset to the community and he touched everyone he met. He will live in our hearts forever.
Larry, Karla, Thomas & Kevin Bellamy

Dear Karen and family,
My heart goes out to you and your family, Herbie was a wonderful man and so much fun to work for. He was always telling stories and "man alive" he could make you laugh. It was a honor to work with him many years ago. What a blessing for all of us who knew him. My prayer is that God, family and friends will comfort you during this difficult time. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Denise (Hemstrought) Haddock

Ms.Karen and children,

With great sorrow, I learned of Dr. Herbie's passing. I enjoyed going to him. As a dentist, I could fall asleep in the chair; a gentle and kind man, that will be greatly missed. He was taught by one of the best, Dr. Harry Needle. May Our Lord comfort you and the children during this sorrowful time and the days to come. Please know that friends, love ones, and especially our Lord are with you during this difficult time. Dr. Herbie was a blessing to us all. Thank you for sharing him.

Mrs. Edna, Mrs. Virginia, and the Orvin Family..

Love Always,

We would like to extend our deepest sympathy to the entire Orvin family. Dr. Herbie touched countless lives, and was a wonderful person to know. Please know that your family is in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Orvin Family:
I'm so sorry to hear about Dr. Herbie. I know most kids never wanted to go to the dentist, but Dr. Herbie made it fun. He would always talk to me about the high school sports. I remember he would tell me my teeth looked like pearls! He also would tell me that he would be able to tell if I was kissing any boys. I will truly miss seeing him at the baseball games and at other sports events!

To the Orvin Family in your time if lost and sorrow: May God’s blessing be bestowed upon you. Dr. Orvin was a great man and the best dentist there was; he will be sadly missed and always loved. Keep your hands in God’s hand for he will direct you and keep you in the path you will need to go.

Dear Orvin Family,
My husband (Chase) and I went to school with Tyler & Katie, though we rarely see them now. Mr. Herbie was always catching me up with how well everyone in the family was doing. He loved bragging about how proud he is of each of you. Our family would like to express our deepest sympathy during your time of heart ache. We'll be praying that God will give you peace of mind in knowing that Mr. Herbie has gone on to a better place.

I will never forget Dentist Visits to go see Dr. Herbie. He made getting your teeth cleaned so fun! He always called me "his favorite patient". He used to say he could look at my teeth and tell I had been kissin' too many boys! =] My heart goes out to Mrs. Karen, Tyler, Katie, Jared, and the rest of his family, and all of his staff at the dentist office! There will never be another dentist, dad, husband, or friend like him. He will never be forgotten.

Karen & Family;
May God comfort you & give you peace during this trying time.
You are in my thoughts & prayers.

Karen & Family;
May God comfort you and give you peace knowing Hebie was a Godly man and loved you so very much. You are in my prayers.
Jayne Clamp Ackerman

Mrs. Karen, Tyler, Katie, and J-Rod,

My heart goes out to all of you for the great loss that everyone suffered Monday. Mr Herbie was a great husband, father, and phenominal friend to the many people that knew him. Mr. Herb has been a fixture in the Timberland baseball program for as long as I remember and one of our biggest, most dedicated fans. Not a game went by without him there, keeping the book, encouraging all the players. Its going to to be hard to imagine baseball games without him there. He was, is and will always be a HUGE part of Timberland Baseball. People like Mr.Herb dont come along very often. He was truly a lifelong friend that I could count on for anything I ever needed. Mr. Herbie might be gone for now but my heart is filled with many great memories of this great man and his great family.

The Orvin Family

Words just can't say how sorry we are to have heard about Dr. Herbie. He was such a good person. We send our deepest sympathy to your family during this time of loss. May God be with you. Again words just can't say how sorry we are.

The Orvins

We send our deepest sympathy to your family. Herbie was such a good person words just can't say. He will be miss so much. May God be with you all during your time of loss. Again our deepest sympathy

Mrs. Orvin & Family -
We are so sorry for your loss and are in constant prayer for you. You mean a great deal to us for reasons that Karen knows of. Please know that, although hard to understand now, God's divine purpose will be revealed in this. May He provide for you comfort and peace through all of this.

God Bless.

Dear Orvin Family: There are no words that can express our heart felt sorrow for you and your entire family. Our hearts truly hurt for you. Through your faith, know that God always takes care of us in our time of need. We are praying that the Lord will send you a peace beyond all understanding to comfort you through your loss. Herbie touched so many lives in many different ways that he will never be forgotten. Please know that you and the entire family will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers.

Mrs. Karen, Tyler, Katie, J-rod,

Mr. Herb was a great man and I am deeply saddened about his departure from us. Most people don't like going to the Dentist, but I loved it. Because everytime I went in (especially in the fall) me and Mr. Herb talked highschool football. Actually he did most of the talking (since he usually had a hand or tool in my mouth) and I chimed in with an occasional head nod or an uh huh.

On game nights, Timberland's stands will never quite be the same, but I'm sure the rest of us will pick up his slack, cheering or voicing an opinion toward a referee or coach.

I feel like everyone is just a little bit better of a person for knowing him. May God heal your broken hearts.

With love, Phillip

Just read the article in the Sun News about the emotional baseball win last night and realized that Herb and I were in dental school at the same time. My youngest son is a senior at Lake City high school, plays 3rd base on the baseball team. You all are in my thoughts and prayers. Boys, your father would be so very,very proud of you, I share his pride. God bless you, allow His grace to comfort you. Carry the wonderful memories of your Dad forward with you. Celebrate his life by living yours to the fullest. You will see him again.

Karen & Children,
I want to extend my deepest sympathy to the entire Orvin family.My heart goes out to all of you,Herbie was a good man.May God Bless each of you.

To Mrs. Orvin, Tyler, Katie, & Jared
I want to extend my deepest sympathy to the entire family. I can sadly say I know what you all are going through at this time, but the same man that kept me, he will also keep you. You are all in my prayers.

To the entire Orvin family,
Words cannot express how deep my love is for each and every one of you. Karen, without you and Herbie I would not have two beautiful nieces and a handsome nephew. Herbie was a wonderful man who would do anything for his family and friends. I will be forever grateful for all the things he did for my family and for always making me feel like I was part of your family. Through your faith and always keeping God first you all will have the strength to continue doing all the things that he loved so deeply. Remember that the Lord has His loving arms around you all and that He will never leave you alone. I will contiue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I will always be here for each of you no matter what you need. I love you all.

KAREN AND FAMILY (THE POND FAMILY WOULD LIKE TO EXTEND OUR SYMPATHY TO ENTIRE ORVIN FAMILY. HERBIE WAS THE MOST CARING PERSON I HAVE EVER BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH EVER. I DON'T NO HOW I COULD HAVE DONE IT HERE AT TIMBERLAND WITHOUT HIS TIME/AND EFFORT HERE. HE SPENT COUNTLESS HOURS HERE ON THE FIELD AND WAS THERE ANY TIME I NEEDED HIM. HE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED FROM THE POND FAMILY AND THE TIMBERLAND BASEBALL FAMILY. MY LOVE GOES OUT TO ALL OF YOU. FROM COACH POND

Trisha Barnette - Dick

Dear Orvin family, I don't know you personally, but I know from hearing Dr. Orvin talk about his family, while he worked on my teeth, that he deeply loved and was proud of his family.

Dear Orvin Family,
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Herbie was a wonderful person and will be missed by so many. My heart goes out to you all and I pray that God will comfort you in this time of sorrow.

My deepest sympathy and condolences are with you Neal, Pam, Mrs Edna,& family.

Tyler and Katie,

Words cannot express how sorry I was to hear about your dad's passing. Alison called me last night. Even though I only met your dad once or twice at parent night, he always struck me as a caring parent and generally nice guy. My parents and grandmother are patients of his and always raved about what a wonderful dentist and friend he was to them. He will be greatly missed by an entire community for sure. I know this is a very difficult time for you and your family, but God will get you through this. You are constantly in my thoughts and prayers.

Lisa Kuhn (formerly Chapman); former math teacher at THS

Mrs Orvin
I'm so sorry to hear about Dr. Orvin. I really liked going in for my appt. I will really miss him. He always made me laugh and feel better about my appt. I will really miss him.

Keith and I are deeply saddened over Herbie's sudden death. I have know him since he was a little child and it was easy to see what a strong Christian, family man he grew up to be. As a wife and a mother I feel so sorry for you Karen and Edna. I can't imagine the pain you are feeling. I feel so much sympathy for his children. Jared is the one I know best, but it was easy to see how devoted you all were to your Daddy. As a sister, I can relate to your suffering, Pam and Neal. And, Virginia, I also know that Edna's children are like your own. You also are in our prayers. We pray that God's love will sustain you all through your sorrow. Betty

To Katie Orvin (my classmate) and the Orvin Family, you all have our deepest sympathy. My God be with you during your time of loss and healing.

Karen,
I am very sorry for your loss. I have gotten to know Dr. Orvin over the last year. He was a wonderful man. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts.

Neal and Family,
I was so very sorry to hear about the sudden death of Herbie. May God Bless and Comfort each of you.

Herbert was a wonderful friend when we were in school. He always had a smile on his face and laughed at every impersonation I did of actors. I never heard him say an unkind word about anyone. I'd sing an Elvis song and got kicked out of class and I could hear laughing when I was in the hallway. he was a wonderful man and someone I am proud to call my friend.

To the family I want you to know that you are in my prayers and when God calls me home, I will see Herbert's smiling face again. Bless you all.

Tyler and Family,
