Otis and i met 21 years ago at Laidlaw. I was a special needs school bus driver, and he was my attendant. We worked together for about three years. And what an adventure those three years were!! Movie outings. Home cooked dinners. Birthday celebrations. And music. So much music!! We sang on the bus for the kiddos. Some real songs. Others we made up. But it was always fun. And we picked on each other relentlessly. The way only best friends would. We made eachother laugh. Even on our worst days. I'm going to miss him. A lot. But at least now i know he's free of any pain and suffering.
Talk about how good God is! He always treated every single person as if they were the most important person in the room. He would put you immediately at ease and accepted you for you.
