Orlando's obituary

In loving memory of our father, Mr. Orlando Zavala Sr., aka "Lando; Lamb; Pops" who left us on September 4, 2024. He was a devoted father to Stephanie, Robert, Savannah, and Orlando, and he will be profoundly missed by all who knew him.

One of the kindest spirits to walk this earth, our father was both nurturing and strong. From an early age, he understood the value of hard work, a lesson he passed down to us. Despite facing personal challenges, he always made an effort to be attentive to our needs as children. He strived to be present in our lives, whether by helping with homework or offering a comforting shoulder.

A man of deep faith, he taught us the significance of family, diligence, and integrity. His love for his older children was immense, and he consistently sought to keep them close to his heart, believing they would someday rejoin our daily lives. He would remind us that after his passing, it would be essential to cherish one another and stay connected.

The wake service is planned for spring 2025 in Michigan. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Cremation of America with the Hillcrest Funeral Home, GoFundMe page, Everloved.com, or directly to his daughters, Stephanie and Savannah, whose details are provided below.

Father, you are now at peace, but you will forever reside in our hearts. We love you dearly. Rest in peace.
