Thomas Franklin Haverfield
Thomas Franklin Haverfield departed this life peacefully at home in Sun City Center on Friday, October 10, entering into eternal rest. He now joins his beloved wife, Carole Haverfield, who passed in 2016. Together again, they are painting side by side in spirit, just as they did in life.

Born to Charles and Helen Haverfield, Tom was a proud graduate of Bowling Green State University, where he met Carole. Their love story spanned 53 years of marriage. Tom dedicated over 26 years to education as a high school art teacher and sports coach, inspiring countless students along the way. His passion for watercolor painting earned him numerous awards and recognition in the art community. He was invited into art museums in Canton, Ohio, to display his work. Tom had many accomplishments in bowling and also played hockey for the Toledo Blade. He loved doing his sports radio announcing for WBBW in Youngstown, Ohio, providing color for local sporting events.

Tom’s memory will be cherished by his loving companion, Gina Smith; his children, Dr. Heather Haverfield and Shawn (Chantel) Haverfield; and his seven grandchildren, Trenton, Gianna, Luke, Skyler, Dominic, Cooper and Leia. Tom also leaves a sister-in-law and brother-in-law in Ohio, June and Alan Kretzer.

All who knew Tom are invited to join in celebrating his life, legacy and the joy he brought to others.

Beth was preceded in death by her husband, Gerald “Jerry” Orvosh, but better known as “Dude” to his grandchildren, as well as her parents, Thomas “Pap” Grove and Margaret Grove.

Nonnie enjoyed the simple things in life: comfortable pajamas, sweets, socializing with friends, Steelers football, pleasantly long conversations (especially with strangers), baking you pizelles before she visited you, taking care of others and spoiling the ever loving crap out of her grandkids, King, Bodhi and Maggie. She was Nonnie to more than just her family and will be sorely missed by all who knew her.

She is survived by her sister, Linda Atlee; son, Scott Orvosh; daughter, Kimberly Dollar (Joe); son, David Orvosh (Christin); and the candy apple of her eye, her three grandchildren.

Service will be held at noon on Nov. 22, 2025, at the Jefferson Memorial Funeral Home in Pittsburgh, PA. Please send any arrangements to the following: Jefferson Memorial Funeral Home 301 Curry Hollow Rd., Pittsburgh, PA 15236.
