Holly SpringsConway Lee Ormond, age 66, of Rougemont, NC, passed away Wednesday, July 19, 2023 at his home. Conway was born August 27, 1956 in Reidsville, NC to the late Isaac Franklin and Elizabeth Wray Ormond. Growing up, Conway surrounded himself with many friends and enjoyed hitting the road in his Volkswagen van with his buddies by his side. After high school graduation, he attended Rockingham Community College while working at American Tobacco in Reidsville. In 1977, while recuperating from an automobile accident that left him a quadriplegic, Conway met and fell in love with his angel, Beth Louise Paine, and married 2 years later. Their love for animals led them to share their hearts and home to many dogs who were central to their family. At the vocational rehabilitation center following his accident, Conway trained as a computer programmer through a program developed by IBM. He utilized his knowledge and expertise with several companies over the years, including the Civil Service at the US Coast Guard in Elizabeth City where he received "Handicap Federal Employee of the Year,' which was presented by then US Secretary of Transportation, Elizabeth Dole. His talents eventually took him to the Central Carolina Bank in Durham and then the Royal Bank of Canada in Raleigh. In his leisure time, Conway enjoyed sitting in the sunshine, bird watching, and ensuring his yard was filled with beautiful, seasonal flowers. He loved hosting parties and family gatherings at his home. His annual July 4th celebration, accompanied by a spectacular fireworks display, was always a well-anticipated event. Always the jokester, Conway would wear silly hats, blinking holiday ties, and a cheerful smile. He was the life of the party. Conway will be remembered by his family and friends for his quick wit and unique sense of humor. In addition to his parents, Conway was preceded in death by his wife, Beth Paine Ormond and brother Frank Ormond. Surviving are his aunt Patsy Pike, sister Mandy Ormond Sossaman, brothers Macon Ormond (Allison), David Ormond (Fonda), brother-in-law Mark Paine (Shelley), nephews Ronnie Tate, Isaac Ormond (Cecilia), Jacob Ormond (Haley), nieces Christy Winton (Corey), Melissa Schneider (Joshua), Abbie Kinnison (Brad), Katie Ormond, and several great nephews and a great niece. The family wishes to express their deepest gratitude to Conway's caregivers for the excellent care provided to him over the years. A special thank you to April Hodges for her exceptional care and commitment to Conway, particularly during the last few months as his health declined.
