Otis also loved building model cars. He made them to the correct, intricate details of the car, and also modified some. He painted them all to his liking and added decals as well. He had recently been teaching himself how to airbrush. In addition to his parents, Otis was preceded in death by his first wife, Sandi Dunlap Conley. He is survived by his wife, Novie Conley; three children, Cassie (Anthony) Tran, Nick Conley, and Michael Conley; stepchildren, Carrie and Jimmie Neils, Tim and Leslie Shoulders, and Devin and Felicia Shoulders; one sister, Evalyn Hill; and two brothers, Joe and Jessie Conley.
