COUNCIL #16730 - FR. PAUL OF GRAYMOOR REMEMBERS
JAMES P ORR, CHARTER MEMBER

 

James Patrick Orr, 58, entered into eternal rest on Sunday, January 20, 2019. James was born on March 17, 1960 in San Antonio and passed away peacefully on his beloved farm in Kerr County. He attended Catholic schools from 1st through 12th grade, and one of his proudest achievements was being a part of the Fighting Texas Aggie Corps of Cadets for more than three years. He graduated from UTSA.

James was predeceased by his grandmother, Mary Barcellona. He is survived by his mother and father, Cornelius and Barbara Orr, his sister, Susan Eisinger, and his niece, Hannah Taylor. He is also survived by a host of dear friends.

James was an administrator at Our Lady of the Atonement Catholic Church for over 30 years, and with his friend Father Christopher Phillips was co-founder of The Atonement Academy in 1994. He loved teaching Economics and he loved his students. It was James’s wish that in lieu of flowers, contributions be made to The Atonement Academy.

Services will be held at Our Lady of the Atonement Catholic Church on Monday, January 28, 2019. A Rosary will be prayed at 1:30 pm, followed immediately by a Requiem Mass. Burial will be private, at a later date.
