Early one spring I was out cutting a Russian olive tree (with my bow saw) dropping branches in ditch to burn Along comes a guy with his chainsaw offering to help Otis & I spent a few weeks together doing spring cleanup At one point my 30+ yr old wheel barrow needed some TLC Otis said he'd take care of it .... And take care of it he did ... he tightened bolts added re enforcement here & there and gave it a fresh coat of paint complete with flames on the sides Patty Wagon across the back I always smile when I hear his name he will be missed...Patricia (Pat) Andersen
