A wound in the head indicated by a bullett from a 32 caliber revolver, had been fatal. A verdict of suicide was returned. Orrell leaves a wife and four children. He had been on WPA work and formerly lived at Cloverdale   --- thanks so much to Marilyn Walker for donating her wonderful Roachdale Times obituary file for use on this site !
