ROGER ALLEN OTTS Jr.

One of my memories of Allen as a child is of his golden blonde hair that always reminded me of a little angel. I can still see him sitting on his rocking horse watching tv till he almost fell asleep. As he grew, I always admired his talents, and his love and compassion for others. As an adult, his adoration and love for his daughters was unfaltering. My sweet nephew, Godspeed dear Allen. I love you.

I was so sad to hear about the passing of Allen. Allen lived behind my parents in Marietta and was a great friend to my Father. Allen was always ready to help anyone who was in need, sometimes putting the person in need before his own needs. He was a great man and will be missed.

Poem written by Allen Otts - and dedicated to Tony Salvatore 4-13-2006

GOD BLESS THE SOLDIER

He grew up small town
Held his head up high
And for his country, he would die

He could manage on his own
But when it came time for war
He knew what he was fighting for

God bless the Soldier
So young and so bold
God bless the Soldier
Willing to die for you and I

It wasn't easy
When he had to leave his family...

May God provide comfort in this time of sorrow. I know that Allen will live on in his little girls and in all those that loved him.

God bless,

The world has lost a beautiful person...one of the sweetest I have ever known. No more "Lonesome Trails" for Allen only HEAVENLY skies. God bless all of you who loved him.

I am saddened by this sudden loss of Allen. We wonder why life isn't fair, but is it not up to us to question God's plan. As precious Sophia said, " Don't cry, Daddy is in heaven with the Angels looking down at us". Let us all remember the good in Allen and how much he loved his little girls, and how they loved him. Keep the memory alive for them. He will not be forgotten.

To all Allen's family: His memory will live on in the treasure of his little girls whom he loved so dearly. Love, prayer and support in this time of sorrow.
Tony and Terrie Salvatore, grandparents of Sophia and Danielle

Allen was such a loving and devoted father to his daughters Sophia, 4, and Danielle, 2. We will do our best to help keep his memory alive for them.

Words cannot express, my love is with you all at this time. Allen was one of the most caring and loving people I have ever known. He will be missed.
