Obituary: When someone is identified as a natural leader, certain images come to mind. First thoughts are of a no-nonsense, tough-minded, dedicated and disciplined person. This description accurately fits Joe Scott Bottorff. He will be remembered as being highly organized, practical and realistic. He was a person who always carried a strong sense of duty with him throughout his life. Possessed with traditional old school morals, Joe was an individual who clearly communicated to those around him just who he was and what he was all about. Everyone acquainted with Joe knew him as a well-respected man who was a stable force in his community.

Joe was born on 15, 1918 at his Sullivan, Indiana home. His parents were John and Mary (McClure) Bottorff. Joe was raised in Southern Indiana. Even as a youngster, Joe learned to be objective and decisive. His faith in the principles of authority and dependability was something that he carried with him throughout his life.

As a young boy, Joe was able to put his natural abilities to work. He was a bit like the sergeant of the family, helping to make sure that the others did what they should do and that they avoided those things they weren supposed to. In other words, he liked to organize and direct. Joe was raised with three siblings. He had two sisters, Geneva (Francis) Crew and Lois (John) Wallace, and one brother Harley (Lena) Bottorff. Joe had an inborn appreciation for order in the family, allowing for the oldest members to be the most respected and to take on the most responsibility. For Joe, this was a natural order of life, one he gladly embraced.

Joes matter-of-fact attitude about most things was developed during his childhood. As a young boy, Joe enjoyed being part of teams, and organizations and groups of other kids who shared similar interests. Joe took part in baseball and basketball. In his spare time he liked collecting and playing with marbles.

In school, Joe was as close to being a model student as one could possibly imagine. He sought to achieve perfect attendance in all of his classes. He would eagerly complete his homework, and often put in extra study time when he felt it was necessary. A logical and focused thinker, Joe was always good at following directions and meeting his schedules, whether they were set by his teachers or were self-imposed. Joes personal motto could well have been, Do it right the first time. He graduated from Blackhawk High School in 1936. He enjoyed some courses more than others, having favorite classes and teachers. His favorite class in high school was Math. Joe played in the band and on the basketball team.

Joe was sociable and approachable. Because he was always so straightforward in how he approached relationships, friends and family knew that what they saw was always what they got. He enjoyed the camaraderie of being with a group of friends. When Joe was a member of a group; his interaction worked to keep others grounded. He wasn afraid to confront his friends and, when necessary, he challenged them to stick to the task at hand. Those close to Joe came to expect his high standards of performance. While growing up, some of his best friends were Harry Mock and Ruth Freeman. Later in life, he became friends with Henry Donnell, Paul Kneer, Bob and Helen Baldwin.

An objective and conscientious individual, Joe reveled in the security of his family. On 18, 1947 Joe exchanged wedding vows with Helen Louise Fortener at the Immaculate Conception Church Rectory of Ottoville, Ohio. One of Joes most endearing qualities was his uncanny ability to remember important dates and anniversaries, and his unending enthusiasm for organizing a celebration for his family and friends.

Joe was ever watchful of his children. He worried about them and was deeply concerned for their development as they grew up. He maintained a firm hand in their upbringing. Joe would give his stamp of approval to their requests, as long as he could see how they might benefit. He also had the ability to enforce the rules as needed to ensure that his children were properly raised. Joe was blessed with seven children, three sons, Peter, Eric and Thomas and four daughters, Margaret Voght, Jane Zingaro, Gina Platt and Mary Sollberger. were also blessed with nine grandchildren, Brian, Brad, Elizabeth (Knapp), Robert Bottorff, Sarah Jo Short, Patrick, Erika (Opalecky) Zingaro and Kristen and Thomas Sollberger; and six great grandchildren, Maddie, Sammie, Owen, Conner, Ethan and Ailey Kate.

Being a hard worker who praised efficiency, Joe was always striving to make improvements where they were necessary. He was able to analyze situations and problems, keeping everything and everyone on track. An excellent project supervisor, Joe was a person who could quickly make decisions based on the information available. He worked cooperatively and expected the same from his colleagues. In both his personal and professional environments, Joe upheld his standards. His primary occupation was as a wire technician. He was employed for 30 years by General Electric. Joe was a team player who certainly lived out the motto of give me a job, and I will get it done.

Joe was an Army veteran. His sense of duty helped lead him into the military where his understanding of rank, his willingness to abide by rules and regulations and his desire to follow orders was admired by his fellow service men and women. He was active duty in the Army from 1941 - 1946 and in the Army Reserve from 1946 - 1966. Joe saw action for WWII. Through his hard work and dedication, he achieved the rank of Lt. Colonel.

Joe approached his leisure time in the same manner that he approached his life. A person who enjoyed being neat and orderly and one who understood the nature of continued...
