Biography

Otto's brother Leonard used to like to tell this story about Otto's younger days. There was a black family that lived near Grandma Eliza. Once Otto climbed a tree that grew over the trail that ran between the two houses. A little black girl from the neighboring house came walking along under the tree and Otto wet on her. The girl went to Eliza and told her "Otto pee down on me". Leonard said Otto got a good spanking for doing it!

Buried in Andalusia Memorial Cemetery, Andalusia, Covington county, Alabama.
