To mrs.Pete Ott
I thankyou for the picture of Pete
I know that smile. Pete probably didn't mention me ,the last time I saw him was in Minneapolis Minnesota in our apartment. He was leaving for work and so was I. When I got home I asked a mutual friend Dennis james where Pete was and he said Pete was moving back to laurel.mt and we soon followed for Dennis and I were only 15 years old and the cops wanted us to move back home. I tried to look him up but to know avail.like you said Pete was a private person and so was his family. However if you would like to hear some stories about Pete, all good you can call me @ 1(406)546-8580

Pete ott was one of my best friends. During our younger years we partied,traveled by rail ,in a box car that is, hitch hiked and had one hell of a time. We lived in Minneapolis Minnesota for a while and I lived with Pete's family for a while in Fromberg.I hope to see him in this after life.
