Thomas Anthony Orso, of O Fallon, MO, passed away Sunday, December 8, 2024 at the age of 76. Beloved husband of Susan Orso; cherished son of the late Joseph and Joyce Orso; devoted father of Thomas Orso, Julie (Scott K.) Price, Lisa (Scott) Blank, and David M.

Thomas served his country for 6 years in the Missouri Army National Guard, and was always a proud patriot. He leaves behind a life rich with passion and purpose. He worked in food sales and home repair and had a lifelong love of music, playing guitar and harmonica in his youth.

An avid outdoorsman, Thomas found joy in nature and built his own log cabin alongside family and friends. He was also a devoted genealogist, spending countless hours uncovering his family’s history. Thomas will be fondly remembered for his love of nature, his dedication to family, and the legacy he leaves behind.

More than anything else, Thomas was a man of faith. He spent many hours in mass and adoration chapel. He always started his day watching the daily mass on TV.
