Lucille Ella Ottmers nee Kneese age 88, passed away peacefully at her home in Kerrville on Friday, March 4, 2016 surrounded by her family. She was born in Fredericksburg, TX to Rufus William Kneese and Ella nee Kelch on February 20, 1928 and was second youngest of five children.
On June 26, 1948, she married Roy Robert Ottmers. Together, they had four sons.
In early 1956, they moved to San Antonio. With frequent visits to family in the Hill Country, they fell for the love, warmth and small-town feel of Kerrville and moved in time for the oldest son to start school.
In the early sixties, she began working for H.E.B. and then worked as a baker for K.I.S.D. until the age of 76 and retired from both. She enjoyed gardening, sewing, scrapbooking, cooking, baking, holiday gatherings, time with her great-grandchildren and her four legged companion, Tonto. Her playful spirit and sense of humor will be deeply missed by all.
Left to honor Lucille and remember her love are her two children, Gary Ottmers and wife, Misti, and Rodney Ottmers; four grandchildren; Blakely Ottmers, Markus Ottmers and wife, Katherine, Bobby Ottmers, Jr., Jordan Ottmers; three great-grandchildren, Lauren Gohmert, William Gohmert, and Roy O'Dell.
Lucille was preceded in death by her husband, Roy Robert Ottmers and two sons, Lester and Bobby Ottmers, all of Kerrville. Also three brothers, Wilbert, Elgin, and Rudy, and one sister, Milda Honig.
Funeral services for Lucille were held on Wednesday, March 9, 2016 at 10:00 a.m. at Grimes Funeral Chapels in Kerrville with Pastor Don Rauhut and Pastor Mike Williams officiating. Interment followed in Der Stadt Friedhof Cemetery in Fredericksburg.
Memorials may be made to Gentiva Hospice.
