We send our condolences for the death of Bryan. We are grandchildren of Omar Cottingham from Kokomo, Ind., and are wondering if you are related to him as well (we think that Omar fathered Aubrey who fathered Jack...mentioned as grandfather to Bryan). We are from the line of George (our father). With sadness for you, we send our thoughts and prayers. Jan (Cottingham) Underwood, Kokomo, and Joe Cottingham, South Bend. ([email protected])
