Not sure what to say?

I worked with Otha several years ago at Steel City Olds. he was a fine man.

I am truly sorry to hear of Otha's passing. He was one of the finest men I have ever met. One of the highlights of a trip to Birmingham was being able to stop by Otha's house to hang out. My condolences go out to his wife and his family. May he rest in peace!
