To the family, please accept my deepest condolences in this dark hour. Thank you for sharing Mr. Otis as he was nothing short of AWESOME! He was such a beacon of light and joy! There is truly a void where his Bible once was on his desk, his morning greetings, his wealth of knowledge, and his daily...."I just came by to check on you, see how you doing". A privilege to know and deeply missed!
Otis was a sweet man who always had a smile and a hug every time I would go to the MPEC to see my husband. The world lost a good Man the day God took him home. R.I.P. Otis & God bring your Family Peace 🙏🫶

I will miss my friend. There is a different atmosphere at MPEC without Otis. He may have worked for Print & Mail, but he was a part of each of our departments. He was always so willing to help with whatever he could. He was a comfort to me when I lost my son last year, always offering a prayer or word of encouragement. Family, my thoughts and prayers are with you. I pray that God gives you peace and comfort during this very difficult time. Although we mourn our loss, I rejoice in knowing where he is...with his Lord and Savior!
Otis was always cheerful and upbeat. He made my day brighter and I considered him a friend. He was a true gentleman at work and when we would run into each other at Publix. To his family.... I am so sorry for the loss of this wonderful person. Melody Albert

Otis was one of the nicest people I've had the pleasure to work with. He was always willing to help and did so with a smile. He also gave me scriptures to read and he was one of the hardest working I've known. He will certainly be missed.
Otis was always happy, always smiling. I can't think of a time he wasn't - joyful. Prayers of peace for his family. I'm so sorry for their loss.
Otis was the sweetest, kindest man I've ever me. He was almost always the first face I saw when I came to the office. He was such a gentleman, opening doors and always greeting us with a smile.
