Otto and Julie were great friends of my husband Eric's mother and stepfather, Evelyn and Ed Listak. I believe they struck up a conversation years ago in a store and remained good friends. We remember Julie as a lively lady, full of fun and with a zest for life. We had great times with her and Otto and Eric's parents by going to fabulous chicken dinners at the Alki Homestead in Seattle. Both Evelyn and Ed have passed also, and we send Otto our love and prayers.

I am so sorry to hear about Judy. My Mom, Katherine Wheeler is in Forest View and we are sorry that we did not know that Judy was there too. Mom valued the friendship between herself and Judy and Otto. My Dad was in Heritage Court for some time and she remembers their support. Please give our best to Otto and let him know that Mom is in 217 at Forest View. She feels bad that she did not know Judy was there . She will give a donation to Salvation Army in Judy's name.



Otto, I apppreciate the Frienship you had with Mom and Dad.



Thank You so much,

Susan Wheeler
