Gary Carlos Otts

September 10, 1968 – November 10, 2025

Gary “Carlos” Otts passed away on Monday, November 10, 2025 with his wife and family by his side. His last words in passing were, “I Love,” a testament to his big heart while he was here on Earth.

Carlos was preceded in death by his grandparents Lois Davidson, Burman Purvis, Berry Otts, and Katherine [Jack] Hayes. He is survived by his wife Kim Otts, children Brittani Otts, Raymond [Cesiley] Thorson and Destiny [Kyle] Vick, grandchildren Joshua Otts, Kaleb Thorson and Aiden Thorson, parents Sue P. Otts and Gary F. Otts [Kris], sisters Marlo Scoggins and Jennifer [Jon] Huffman, as well as a host of aunts, nieces and cousins.

At Carlos’s request, there will not be a memorial service. Instead, a casual and fun celebration in honor of his life will be held in the Atlanta area in the spring of next year. Soon after, in accordance with his wishes, his ashes will be released into the Turtle River in Brunswick, Georgia, so as to be joined with his grandfather whom he cherished and went fishing there with.
