Lucille "Lucy" Orr Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Lucille “Lucy” Orr, age 78, of Roan Mountain, Tennessee went home to be with the Lord and those who had passed before her on Monday, October 26, 2020 from the Johnson City Medical Center. Lucy was born in Carter County to the late Ben and Vina Carver Deloach. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by an infant son, Robert G. Orr; and a brother Lloyd Deloach. Lucy was a loving wife, loved her cars and was known to have a “spit-fire” personality. She had worked at Baxter Pharmaseal and was of the Free Will Baptist faith. Lucy was a past member of the Order of the Eastern Star and she enjoyed shopping and having her hair and nails done. She loved horses and all animals and would feed them all – even the wild animals. Most especially she loved her cats, Barney and Little Bit and her cows. Those left to cherish her memory include her loving and devoted husband of 58 years, Robert Orr, of the home; two brothers, Louis Deloach and Luther Deloach; two nephews, Joel Deloach and special nephew, Skipper Deloach; and one niece, Angie Deloach. Several cousins along with many neighbors and friends also survive. A graveside service to celebrate Lucy’s life will be conducted at 11:00 AM on Friday, October 30, 2020 at Happy Valley Memorial Park with Pastor Roger Laws and Pastor Troy Davis, officiating. Those wishing to attend the graveside are asked to meet at the cemetery at 10:50 AM on Friday. The family would like to thank the nurses of the 4th and 5th floors at the Johnson City Medical Center for the exceptional care given to Lucy during her stay.
