Good to hear from you Cindy, and hope you all have been doing well. I thank you for your sentiments. Otis and I were soul mates and we will always be connected in love and spirit. He was a very unique and special man and was loved by so many and certainly will be greatly missed. Love to all, Jeanne

Jeannie, I am so sorry for your loss. Otis was a genuine person. Know that you are in my prayers. I have loved the two of you for many years. May God uphold you in your time of grief. Love You, Cindy and Jack Garett.

Dear Jeanne,

I feel your loss as a friend of Otis' at Butner. I was there from April 12, 2013 to Feb 21, 2014, and became good friends with Otis. I say prayers for you and Otis every day, and that has continued since his passing on May 14. Otis enjoyed when I would invite him and other terminal men to my reading of prayers for a miracle to heal them, which I did every Wednesday afternoon and Sunday morning at Butner. Otis offered to do my time at Butner for me so I could go home to my wife, which was a sincere offer of friendship. This offer could never be fulfilled, but his sincerity was genuine. The world has lost a great man, and God has gained a might warrior into His ranks of angels.

May God bless you with His infinite mercy for your tragic loss, and I look forward to discussing my time with Otis and Barry with you when you are up for the discussion. Let me know a date and time to call you by sending me this information at my e-mail address.

May God bless you and reunite you with Otis at His divine time,

Dr. Scott Best
