Mrs. Longmire, Tyler, Clark and Family, My mother and I would stop on occasion and I would wave saying, "Hi, Good to see you." Mr. Longmire would smile, wave and talk with my mother for a few minutes, and sometimes Mrs. Longmire. Rich history of which you were so blessed to hear his stories, work with him in many ways and to carry on his legacy. Memories to share and handle with care with so many other family and friends. Hugs and Prayers with Love, -L. Rebecca (Becky) Wynn (daughter) and Joy E. Wynn (mother), Members-Fountain City United Methodist Church, Knoxville, TN

Maxie, Max and children,
So sorry to read and hear about Otho's passing! He was so special to me and to so many of us that worked with him and were clients of his in the automible businesss! Such a fine honest salesman! And a great friend! He was one of the reasons I loved working at Knoxville Motor Company for so many years. One other thought as I write, Otho always called me on my birthday of July 18 and I called him on his which was July 17. Something that I will always carry close to my heart. Keep the memories of Otho close to your heart and I promise you will forever wear a smile! You can rest now Otho and you will be truly missed!
