Otto L. Denny, son of Lewis and Ellen Denny, was born at Dover, Boone County, Indiana, May 22, 1877, and departed this life Jan. 18, 1902, at the home of his parents in Darlington, being at the time of his death 24 years, 7 months and 20 days old.
He united with the First Baptist Church of Crawfordsville when seventeen years of age, and was married to Nellie Mae Martin July 23, 1899, and he and his wife united with the Christian Church at Bedford, Ind., in May, 1901.
He suffered seven long and weary months from consumption, but he fully realized his condition and knew he had to die and told his parents and wife that he was willing to go and would be at rest, and although he suffered a great deal during his sickness he died peaceful.

He was a printer by trade, and a faithful son and husband. He was laid to rest in the cemetery at Dover, Monday, Jan. 20, 1902. He leaves a devoted wife, mother, father, two sisters and a host of friends and relatives to mourn his loss. - thanks so very much for all the hard work done by "S" on the obit section of this GenWeb page
