  • Notes 
    • “Otto was born in Austin, Texas. He attended schools in that area before marriage and relocation to Fort Worth.

      “For most of his adult life he was a salesman by profession, developing his own small independent business in the 1940’s. In addition to his native language, he had the ability to converse in German and Spanish, a factor which enhanced his effectiveness in the business world.

      “He followed the Presbyterian religion and encouraged his family to participate in Sunday religious services.

      “Though and avid radio fan, he was a devoted father who spent evenings and weekends participating in family activities.” [11]
