Not sure what to say?

Our sympathy and condolences in the loss of Otto -- will so miss him and his always extension to us of a bright outlook.

What I will remember is a man with such a gentle giving spirit. He was such a blessing to our mother, Gertie Camp. I'm thankful for the influence he had in her life and how much she enjoyed her job while working with him at Baylor. Heaven is so much sweeter today !!

How could I ever forget the man that gave me my first jalapeno pepper? My love, thoughts, and prayers to you all.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time! I know my mom, Gertie, was on his heavenly welcome committee! I have so many fond memories of working with my mom at his office for several summers! Your family is very special to me!

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Willbanks family. Our lose is great.

Helen,

Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Also, my memories of my parent's dear friends; and my special memory of your baking a choclate pie for me when I came home from the hospital! Kenneth Hampton

My heartfelt love and sympathies go out to you. Dorothy Hampton
