All my Family,
Ray and I are so sorry to not be able to be together to share the wonderful life of Uncle Otto. He was an inspiration to us and we enjoyed every minute we had with him. Full of life, love and laughter. I will never forget the time he fixed my dryer and I was teaching our parrot to talk and had a tape repeating words over and over and Uncle O popped his head out of the dryer and said "Hello- Hello - Hello". Too many other wonderful stories to tell. He will be missed, but never forgotten. God Bless you All.
Love, Sue & Ray

What a great day it was celebrating Uncle Otto's life yesterday!!
He not only was my uncle, but also my Godfather and I always looked up to him :)
It was sad and happy being with all of my family this week!
So many stories and memories exchanged by everyone.
He would have approved of the horshoe tournament :)
We will miss him.

Dear Hintz Family
Uncle Otto to me - strong, smart, opinionated and sharp-witted -the Patriarch of the Hintz clan - that is how I will always remember him and will picture him from the last time I saw him - smiling at me.
Heartfelt sympathy to all of you.
with caring and Love, Gretchen

It is sad to hear that Otto passed away after his 85 years of life, and we have no more chance to talk with him about still continuing and growing scarfing machine business.
If possible, please forward following message to his sons or family.

" KBK and myself wish to express condolences on Otto's death to his
families.
Even the company name was changed to ESAB/L-TEC from Union Carbide
Corporation, the business we had jointly developed since 1940's has steady
growth, and time to time the name of Otto comes up when we have the machine
installation as one of the best management people who could really
understand the mind of engineers & staffs working directly in front of the
customers in steel industry.
Recalling years of 1970's and 1980's (until 1984), we had more than 40
scarfing machine installations and I could have so valuable times and fun
with so many good characters form UCC including Otto, and such experiences
have been treasures of mine in not only business but also private life.
It is so sorry for loosing beloved Dad, but he will stay forever in your
mind, and be always with you and watches you back.
Myself and KBK will never forget Otto, and thank once again to all he did
for us.

With our deepest sympathy "
