Otis was educated in Baltimore Public City Schools and

received his CDL license which afforded him the opportunity
to be a truck driver. Otis was also a member of the
organization, I Can't We Can". During his tenure with the
program, he was one of only few who completed the program
which was a major accomplishment. Otis had a personality
that would light up a room. He was a class clown and wanted
to joke and play around. Otis was given the nickname Big 0
by the neighborhood because he loved playing all sports
especially basketball and football. Another one of his pastime
was playing card games but on occasions he loved to dress up
and pretend to be Baby Face. He also enjoyed going out and
having a good time with his cousins at the clubs.
