I am greatly saddened by the death of Warren. He and I worked very closely coaching basketball at Paterson EHS and at St.John's Paterson. We also worked together teaching and in the Guidance Dept. at EHS. One of my closest friends. I surely have missed him all these years and regretfully so now. Mickey Spinelle

My gym teacher in school 25 in Paterson in 1951 when we won the City of Paterson basketball title. He was a young teacher/coach at that time. I recall that hehad a Jeep and would pile the entire team in his car and drive us to away games. Our team had 4 players go on to make All-City in 4 different high schools in Paterson and 2 went on to play college ball at Pratt U. and NC State. I have fond memories of him and those fun days. My condolences to the entire Ott family. Jim Lacava {[email protected]. I still have our team photo. !!!
