He was baptized and confirmed in the Union Lutheran Church where he was a lifelong member. He married Agnes Aaserud June 12, 1965, in the Trinity Lutheran Church (Roseville) near Portland; this union was blessed with 2 sons, Arlen and Keith. The couple made their home on the Kalvik home farm until retiring in 2007 when they moved to Fargo. Orville farmed and worked at Melroe, Sheyenne Tooling both in Cooperstown, ND and later at the Finley Bakery. Orville was a great musician, playing the violin and accordion.
