The Lake Odessa Wave, August 22, 1929
Orr Caswell was born in Sebewa township, Ionia county, February 16, 1889, and 
departed this life August 6, 1929, at the age of 40 years, 5 months and 21 
days.  

He began his schooling at the Goddard school in Sebewa and finished it in Lake 
Odessa high school.  He was married to Miss Mary Tew on December 25, 1906.  To 
them was born one son Dennard Orr.

In the early spring of 1908 he was seriously ill with typhoid fever, from 
which he never fully recovered; however, by his indomitable spirit he 
continued in the active work of salesmanship.  He entered the automobile sales 
business for himself in 1914, which he continued for ten years, when in 1924 
he was obliged to give it up because of failing health.

He was a member of Central Methodist church, of the Masonic order of the 
I.O.O.F., and of the K. of P.  He was a kind, devoted husband and father, and 
a friend to everybody.

He leaves to mourn his departure, his devoted wife, one son, his father and 
mother, Mr. and Mrs. William Caswell of Lake Odessa, one brother, Chalmer 
Caswell of Ionia, and his father-in-law, and many other relatives and friends.
