Dear Family;
I am so sorry and I really hate to hear about this. I thought Clella Ann was a really good at Fender Reunion... She always had a good smile on her face and a full rich laughter that make you want to laugh with her.. She loved the Lord with all of her heart....
God bless you!!!

Both Larry and Ann both treated me very well and I will always cherish the positive way that they impacted my life. they always seemed to have a joy and happiness that they brought with them and was always willing to lend a helping hand to others. they have both made me very proud to have had the opportunity to be a part of there lives and now they can be at peace together. My thoughts and prayers are with all of the Otey family. Take care in knowing that they are once again happy in being in the company of one another.
