I'm so very sorry to hear of Otis' passing. I really missed seeing him and Virginia at the Baker-Church reunions. He was such a wonderful man. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of my great uncle Otis. He was just that, a "GREAT" great uncle. Although I can't be there for the service this week, Virginia and Sharon, you know you are in my heart and prayers.

It has been such a pleasure taking care of Otis over the past 2 years. Many laughs we shared and the friendship I had with Otis will be cherished forever.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family during their time of loss.
