Dotty, as she was affectionately called by family and friends alike, enjoyed simple pleasures, spending time with children and grandchildren, always ready to lend a helping hand, listening to music with Fred, as well as keeping up with family events and abreast of the politics of the day.

Many adoring nieces and nephews and three sisters-in-law also survive her.
She was the beloved wife (64 years) of Frederick Otten, who died December 2006.
Four brothers, Walter, Harold, Edward and Fred, and four sisters, Grace, Dorothea, Helen Brehm and Florence O'Connell, predeceased her.
