"Patiently suffered from the effects of rheumatism which affected his heart and called him to the great beyond August 11th at 3:40 a.m." (From The Wasatch Wave, Heber City.)
Quotations from the 1932 autobiography of R. O. Luke, Orvel's father:
After Orvel's death, friends and neighbors "took up a little collection in the crowd and in a few moments came and handed me nearly twenty four dollars... . To express my appreciation of this great kindness in an hour of need is entirely beyond my ability."
On the night that Orvel's parents transported his body to Heber, via the train: "We were until ten o’clock at night getting to Heber, yet sixty friends, or relatives and friends waited to meet us, and several wanted to take us home and care for us. Funeral services were held in the Second Ward Church next day... . The services were well attended and entirely satisfactory. We returned to our home with broken hearts, and the future looked dark, indeed, but time slowly wore our sorrow away, and we went onward in the journey of life."
