Oliver, whom he raised as his own son (Dorcas), along with (12) Grand Children, (14) Great Grand Children, and a host of cousins, nieces, nephews and friends. He will always be in everyones hearts, and never forgotten.
Michael L. Hayden
Michael “Mike” L. Hayden, 71, went home to be with his Lord Jesus on August 28, 2024. He was born in Flint, Michigan on April 18, 1953, the son of Norman and Aletha Hayden and the third of four children. He graduated from Lapeer West High School in 1971 and the following year he married the love of his life, Barbara. Mike’s two children, Lee and Brandy, were born soon after. Mike worked at General Motors-Chevrolet Truck and Bus in Flint, Michigan for thirty-four years where he met many life-long friends. After retirement, he served others at Calvary Presbyterian Church, Flint Michigan. In 2013, he and Barbara relocated to a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio to provide childcare for two of their grandchildren. There they attended Shoreline Church where he enjoyed more friendships.
Mike was a dedicated husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend. His wife, Barbara, was truly his “other half” and his closest confidant. He was a devoted and supportive father and grandfather who diligently attended games, concerts and all other activities involving his children and grandchildren. Mike’s sisters were not only his family, but also his entrusted friends. Mike enjoyed many sporting activities including hunting, fishing, basketball, softball and volleyball. All who knew him were aware of his loyalty to the University of Michigan Wolverines and thoroughly enjoyed sparring with Ohio State fans. However, it was not the activities or competition that he found most engaging, but rather the time spent investing in friendships and family bonds.
Mike’s perseverance and positive personality was an inspiration to those around him despite his struggle with heart disease for many years. He smiled at everyone and chose to share his faith by helping to care for others, and expressing joy, gratitude and humor. Even in his last days, he was able to bring smiles to his caregivers at the Cleveland Clinic who he much appreciated.
Mike is survived by, and will forever remain in the hearts of, his beloved wife of fifty-one years, Barbara C. Hayden, children Lee (Lindsey) Hayden and Brandy (Jonathon) Lorek, grandchildren Chase Hayden, Marlee Cochran, Colt Hayden, Grant Lorek and Anneliese Lorek, sisters Karin (James) Krepps, Michele “Mickey” (Michael) Shigley, Laurie Hayden and many nieces, nephews and cousins.
A memorial service will be held at 2pm on Sunday, November 10, 2024, at Grace Presbyterian Church, 1084 North Irish Road, Davison, with refreshments to follow. The family will receive visitors from 1:00-2:00 p.m. prior to the service.
In remembrance of Michael Hayden’s life, the family asks that any charitable donations be made to Grace Presbyterian Church or “The Chosen” at comeandseefoundation.org.
Kelly Lorene Page
Kelly passed away on September 19, 2024 early morning while enjoying her nicotine fix in the beautiful outside air.

Two of those men gave her two children who have survived her, Millissa O’Neil Baker, husband Bobby Baker of Dolores, Colorado and Jakub Levente Dombrowski of Middlefield, Ohio. She was born in Cleveland, Ohio to Eual Kenneth and Margie O’Neil Page whom preceded her in death as well as her eldest brother Kenny Lee Page. She graduated from Ledgmont High School and in her prime, managed numerous high end banquets at Punderson Manor Lodge and Quail Hollow Country Club.

To honor her wishes, no formal service will be held. However, if anyone knows where her shoes are please reach out to one of us. She was always losing them.

Terrence (Terry) Orvis is remembered as being fiercely independent, artistic, fun-loving, and a loyal friend, who enjoyed working with his hands, hosting gatherings at his woodland home, travel, gardening and working in his woods. He was a man who lived life (and death) on his own terms.
Terry, an architect and accomplished oil painter from Chardon, passed away peacefully in his sleep on the morning of August 11, 2024.
Terry was born in Elyria in 1937 to Suzanne (Murbach) and Albert J. Orvis. He grew up with sisters Patsy and Nicki and brother Tim and formed lifelong friendships with schoolmates. He served in the National Guard and graduated from Kent State University with a Bachelor of Architecture. After college he moved to Cleveland and worked at William Dorsky and Associates, then at the Dalton-Dalton-Little and Newport Architects, Inc. (DDLN). He won design awards for Haven of Rest in Akron, Ohio and the US Navy Data Center, Cleveland, Ohio.
Terry and his college sweetheart Bonnie Boyer (Pearce) married and lived in Shaker Heights with their children Stacia, Ginger and Ryan before moving to Chardon in 1977 to a home that Terry designed and built, inspired by the woodlands surrounding it. Terry left DDLN to start his own business after the couple divorced in the 1980s. He partnered with best friend and neighbor Hank Penttila to form Orvis-Penttila Architects, before branching out on his own as Terrence K. Orvis Architects. Orvis-Penttila were known for many unique commercial and residential designs, and notably the Cleveland Heights Motorcars Honda dealership, preserving the historic Cleveland Heights City Hall entrance and incorporating it into the design.
In addition to his interest in design, Terry was a talented artist who enjoyed oil painting, music, photography, cooking, sailing, and travel. He reconnected with his love of painting and drawing in the 1990s, becoming active with the Murray Hill Drawing Group based in Cleveland. Terry was prolific in oil on canvas still-life, portraits, abstracts, and later volunteered for the Geauga Park District (GPD) to construct “glaciers” paint museum quality wall-sized backdrops for the GPD’s “Engage the Ice Age” exhibition.
Terry met Paige Hosier in 1994 and the two became inseparable. They hosted painting workshops at their home and embarked upon trips to Europe, Costa Rica, Mexico, Caribbean and cross-country USA. Terry and Paige married in 2012, and Terry became the stepfather of Paige’s children Erin, Michael, and Brian.
Terry is survived by spouse Paige Orvis, daughter Stacia (Chas) Littleton, son Ryan Orvis, stepdaughter Erin (Chris Gelles) Hosier, stepsons Michael (Suzanne) Hosier and Brian Hosier, grandchildren Charli and Seth Littleton, grandson Jackson Hosier, nephews Paul, Rod and John Mugford, and niece Brooke (Donnie) St. Peter.
He was preceded in death by daughter Ginger Caitlin Orvis, parents Albert J. and Suzanne L. (Murbach) Orvis, sisters Patricia A. Mugford and Nichol L. Mitchell, and brother Timothy L. Orvis, nephew Jonathan Jacob Mitchell.
