Mattie Ann Ott, of Greensburg, was born on April 27, 1943 in Perry County, Kentucky, a daughter to Earl Bowles. She was raised in part by her grand-parents Viola and Frank Bowles. She married Arnold Ott on December 16, 1961 and he preceded her in death on March 18, 2016. She was a homemaker but more than that she was a loving mother and wife. Her life was spent taking care of and being with her family. She did work as a seamstress for many years but making clothes for her children and quilting was one of her passions. She also enjoyed reading, gardening and being active in her church. Mattie was a member and one time pianist of Cornerstone Baptist Church in Greensburg. On Wednesday, May 13, 2020 at the age of 77, God’s servant, Mattie was called home.
