John L. Ormsby

MONTPELIER- John Ormsby passed through heaven's door on December 14, 2020 at The Gary Residence in Montpelier, Vermont after a brave two month battle with cancer. He expressed gratitude for each person at The Gary Residence and Westview Meadows for their care and kindness from the day he moved in, and more so after his time in hospice. John was born in Montpelier, VT on June 5, 1931 to Waterman Guy and Hazel Edith Ormsby. He attended various schools including Montpelier High School and Burlington High School. He was 89 years old. We honor his extraordinary life with Agnes, and credit him for keeping them going from one place to another while enjoying their retirement. He especially enjoyed his time in "sunny Southwest Florida" where he could be warm and avoid the winter. He was a genuine and helpful person who made a difference in so many lives, many he knew, and many he didn't. Above all else, John was a husband, father, and Jiddo to his family. His number one priority was his wife, Agnes, and his love...
