Hello to Katherine in Bellingham, WA. We hit the Jackpot! I called two Luth. churches in Beaver Dam and First Evangelical Lutheran was Rev. Otto's church. I am cc'ing to the churches' archives expert. (She started the archives!!) She has lots of info as well as his obituary. Good luck and enjoy all the info she has.
