Jim VanOrsdel . . . a true and loyal friend of ours. This was a friendship that originated as far back as the 1970’s. This is our story.
It all began when Jim and I met and formed a lasting work relationship soon after hiring in as budding engineers for the BFGoodrich Company, and carried that friendship for, what seems like forever, as we continued designing tires, for Michelin in the 1990’s.
Later on, while Jim continued his career by designing huge, off-the-road tires for Firestone, I chose to become a tire quality engineer for General Motors. Throughout our career changes, and multiple moves to different States, the four of us, Jim, Carol, Judy and I, have kept that personal connection, and a very special friendship.
It was our wives, Carol and Judy, who really cemented that association. Our families lived in North Canton, Ohio for many years, where we raised our children, enjoyed lots of social events and neighborhood gatherings. Over time, we shared many vacation trips and weekend excursions that took us from canoeing in Canal Fulton, to destinations in Virginia, Ohio, and Michigan, to exploring plantations in Hilton Head, South Carolina. After our last stay in Murfreesboro, Jim and Carol flew to California in 2014 to be with us for two weeks. Such a wonderful, enjoyable time together.
Our story - a remarkable, close friendship that developed and has lasted for over 50 years.
God bless you, Jim. May your soul rest in peace.
Blessings to Carol and all of their family.
Lovingly,
John and Judy O’Hara ✝️
