Dino Pietro Orsini was born on July 9, 1939 in Castiglione Fiorentino, Italy, of Domenico Orsini and Luisa Papini. Between the age of 11 and 17 he completed his secondary education at a Capuchin monastery in Tuscany, studying classics. He trained as a Maître D’ in the late 1950s in Italy before being offered to work abroad. He worked in hotels and restaurants in Switzerland, France, Scotland and England, becoming fluent in English and French during this time. He eventually moved to Brussels, Belgium, which was supposed to be his last European destination before returning to Italy. There he met his future wife whom he courted for two years before their wedding on June 11, 1966. He was proud to have founded a family in Belgium and the joy of his life was his two sons, Dominique and David. He worked hard to give a good life to his family, eventually becoming the proud owner of a flat in downtown Brussels. He liked to tinker in his garage and over the years realized many ambitious renovation projects around the flat. He joined the LDS church in 1974. He held many callings, also serving as Bishop. Many remember him as a loving and principled individual who always put others first. In 1982 he won the annual 'Best Maître D' of Belgium' competition, the crowning achievement of a successful professional career. He dearly loved all his eight grandchildren. During his retirement, he took care of his grandchildren and was always willing to go the extra mile to serve his family. He was also able to visit his grandchildren in the United States on several occasions. His caring presence will be missed by all. He is survived by his wife Antoinette Lambert; his sons and their wives: Dominique and Eleanor Orsini, as well as David and Rebecca Orsini; his grandchildren Claire, Sarah, Alexander, Juliette, Stephanie, Julia, Clarisse and Max; and his brother and sister-in-law, Georgio and Bruna Orsini. Funeral services will be held at 3:00 p.m., Monday, February 5, 2018 at the Berg Drawing Room Chapel, 185 East Center Street, Provo, Utah. There will be no prior visitation. Interment, Provo City Cemetery. Condolences may be expressed at www.bergmortuary.com.

De l'âge de 11 à 17 ans il poursuivit des études secondaires dans un monastère des frères capucins et étudia le latin et le grec. Il suivi ensuite une formation de maître d’hôtel à la fin des années cinquante avant de partir travailler à l'étranger. Il travailla dans des hôtels et restaurants en Suisse, France, Ecosse et Angleterre, et apprit l'anglais et le français. Il arriva finalement à Bruxelles pour ce qui aurait du être sa dernière destination avant de rentrer en Italie. il y rencontra sa future femme qu’il a courtisa pendant deux ans avant leur mariage le 11 Juin 1966. Il était fier de la famille qu'il avait fondé en Belgique et la joie de sa vie était ses deux fils, Dominique et David. Il travailla sans relâche pour subvenir aux besoins de sa famille, et devint l'heureux et fier propriétaire d'un appartement familial à Bruxelles. Il aimait bricoler dans son garage et réalisa de nombreux projets de rénovation ambitieux. Il devint membre de l'église SDJ en 1974. Il eut de nombreux appels, dont évêque. Beaucoup se rappellent de lui comme quelqu'un d'aimant et de droit qui pensait d'abord aux autres. En 1982 il remporta le concours de premier maître d'hôtel de Belgique, le plus beau succès d'une carrière professionelle réussie. Il a chèrement aimé tous ses huit petits-enfants. Après sa retraite il s’en est occupé et était toujours prêt à servir sa famille. Il a également pu rendre visite à ses petits-enfants aux États-Unis à plusieurs reprises. Sa présence bienveillante nous manquera à tous. Il laisse derrière lui sa femme Antoinette Léonie Lambert ; ses fils et leurs épouses : Dominique et Eleanor Orsini ainsi que David et Rebecca Orsini ; ses petits-enfants Claire, Sarah, Alexander, Juliette, Stéphanie, Julia, Clarisse et Max ; et son frère et sa belle-sœur, Georgio et Bruna Orsini.
