Born June 16, 1928 in Hershey, Pennsylvania, he was the son of the late Orlando and Rose (Cecchini) Orsini.

A 1947 graduate of the former Hummelstown High School, he was a standout multisport athlete, but excelled on the gridiron.

He had a passion for Pennsylvania history, and he compiled and presented slide shows on many topics, especially covered bridges. In the community he stayed active by helping his parents and sister at The Warwick Hotel, coaching his sons' baseball teams and the Hummelstown Twilight team, umpiring in various softball leagues, driving for Meals on Wheels, and giving talks on Pennsylvania history to organizations in the area. He was a member of the Central Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame, the Theodor Burr Covered Bridge Society of Pennsylvania and the Hummelstown Area Historical Society.

Surviving are his high school sweetheart and wife of 65 years Nancy (Hummel) Orsini; four sons Michael of Sewickley, husband of Linda Orsini, Thomas of Virginia Beach, husband of Pam Orsini, Steven of Oklahoma City, husband of Amy Orsini and Ronald of Houston, husband of Alice Orsini; sister Jean Paine of Hummelstown; eight grandchildren Christine, wife of Brian Mickey, Carolyn, wife of Jason Woytowich, Elizabeth Orsini, Grayson Orsini, husband of Kelsey Orsini, Alexandra Orsini, Angela Orsini, Abigail Orsini and Katherine Orsini; five great grandchildren Olivia Mickey, Connor Mickey, Caroline Mickey, Julia Woytowich and Lauren Elizabeth Woytowich; niece Sherri Rizzo, wife of John Rizzo; and nephews Daniel Paine and Jeffrey Paine.
