HALLETTSVILLE - Charlie Othell Clements Speed, went to be with her Lord on August 24, 2012, at the age of 94 years and 6 months. Othell was born on February 22, 1918 in Covington, Texas, the youngest of eleven children born to the late Edward and Charlotta Overton Simmons.

Othell was a very special lady with a lot of friends. Some called her Charlie, but most knew her by Othell. She loved to share stories of her younger years and always said they didn't have much in the way of material things, but there was always food on the table and lots of good times. Othell lived a long and blessed life and said if she had it to all over again, she wouldn't change a thing. What a wonderful testament to her faith and love of Christ and family! Othell was a charter member of the Sweeney Chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star.

Othell is survived by: 2 daughters, Sharlotte Botard & husband Louis of Angleton, TX, and Debbie Stastny & husband James of Victoria, TX; son Dennis Clements & wife Vickie of Three Rivers, TX; 8 grandchildren; 19 great grandchildren; and 2 great great grandchildren.

Othell was preceded in death by: 1st husband Ollie Zack Clements of 44 years; 2nd husband Robert "Bob" Speed of 21 years; still born son; parents; 7 brothers, Austin, Hubert, Earl, Carroll, Doc, Howard, and Frank Simmons; and 3 sisters, Viola Simmons, Mae Lloyd, and Floye Cassie.

Funeral Service: 10 am, Monday, Aug. 27, 2012, at First Baptist Church of Hallettsville. Visitation: 4 pm, Sunday at Kubena Funeral Home. Officiate: Rev. Terry Horton.
