My Friend Carl Ott
Carl was my friend for over fifty years and will be missed and remembered by all that worked with him at Allegheny/USAirways/USAir at Greater Cincinnati Airport. We worked the same shift most of my career in Customer Service . I watched his children grow up and Carl was all about his children.
When I retired in 2000 I joined Carl and our fellow retirees and friends at Monthly Breakfast get togethers and our annual Christmas Party. Rest in Peace
Carl and my deepest condolences to Phyliss, Theresa, Carl, and Kathleen, their spouses and children.
