Otakar, I’ve known you for approximately 45 years. You were a joy to have a drink with, very intelligent at your craft ( engineering ) always smiling and I learned some valuable life lessons from you. Rest in peace my friend. You deserve it. PS. I walk my dog’s with your boots and it brings me joy that you’re out on walks with me.

My deepest condolences. The loss of a loved one is never easy, but remember who Ota was and the joy he brought you.
Rest in Peace Otakar.

Losing a good, longtime friend means we are losing part of our own life. It is sad and it is painful. Otakar was a hard working, self-disciplined, persistent and purposeful man.
He was a good sportsman, a good musician and amazing handyman. He loved good company and humor, he was always ready to laugh. We believe that at his new destination he will be appreciated, welcomed and loved as he was always among us.

Dear George and Peter,
It has been a very long time since we’ve seen each other last, some time in 1978. I heard about your Dad and I am sorry for your loss. I know how it is as I lost both my parents now as well. I will be thinking about you both on Thursday. If you ever need somebody to talk to, I am here for you.

Please accept my sincere condolences on your loss. A very sad and unexpected news about Ota’s passing. He was our long time dear friend, caring, generous, always with a smile on his face and always ready for a good time!
I am thinking of you during this difficult time and sending lots of hugs and prayers to you, Evi and the whole family.
Otiku, RIP …

Dear Jiri (George) and Peter (and your families).
You may not remember me, but we were neighbours and childhood friends, when you lived on Newlin Crescent.
I remember your dad, like yesterday. He was strong, helpful, always smiling. I remember him taking us skating and trying to teach me how to skate…. I still can’t skate very well 🙂 I remember times in your backyard, with the fire pit he built out back, and all the great music he had in his collection. I remember your cat, Lady, who would jump and sit on his shoulder. Those are wonderful memories.
I’m sure he was also a wonderful grandfather.
You moved away one summer, and I’ve hoped for years to reconnect with you somehow.
My deepest sympathies on your loss. May your sadness now fade away to happy memories. Know that he will always be with you, watching over you and caring for you.
Your old-time friend, hoping to hear from you again.
Chris Ostercil ( now Chris Mariner)

Upřimnou soustrast celé rodiné
Kalina-Urbanových .
Ota byl náš dlouholetý kamarád Jury z gymnázia. Všichni jsme ho měli rádi pro jeho veselou povahu. Prožili jsme s ním řadu nádherných setkání a úžasných dovolených. Na to budeme vděčně vzpomínat. Věříme, že se Ota už setkal s Jurou “Tam u nebeskýho báru…” jak spolu zpívávali.
Myslíme na vás a jsme s vámi smutní

Kdys jsem dostala Tvuj Emaiil, bylo to moc smutne. Uvedomila jsem si, ze se uz s Otou tady na zemi ntkdy nesetkame. Ota byl jedinecne uspesny vsude, v pracii i po ni. Vzorove se staral o Tebe a vasi rodinu. Vzpominame, kdyz jste byli u nas a pri te prilezitosti jste zdolali suverenne v Alpach Matterhorn, vysoky 4 478 m To potrebuje mit neco navic.
Tobe Evicko prejeme hodne sily a velkou chut do budoucna. Tesime se, ze se u nas uvidime!
Zitra v 10 hodin jsme s Tebou
Tvoji Jarka a Fero

Although we lost touch due to me working abroad, I fondly remember working with Otakar on a variety of projects, as well as his picture taking skills at Hatch parties. He was an excellent engineer with high standards in all he did. Our thoughts to his family at this sad time.
