Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute
Rochester: Wednesday, October 14, 2026, at the age of 91. Predeceased by her husband, Richard E. Otto. Survived by daughter, Linda (Robert) Kostin and son, Alex (Elisa Bob) Otto; grandchildren, Michael (Alexandra Schafer) Kostin, Charles Jean (Marshall Lynn) Miller, and Sam and Audrey Otto. Jean graduated from SUNY Alfred with a degree in marketing in 1955. After raising her family, she returned to the workforce as a bookkeeper at Latta Road Nursing Home, retiring in 1995. Beloved mother, grandmother, and treasured friend. Jean was a descendant of several pioneer families of Monroe County. She was loved by all who were fortunate enough to know her. The family wishes to express gratitude to the third-floor care team at the Jewish Home. Jean will be dearly missed.
Her Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday (October 25th) at 11:00 AM in the chapel of Vay-Schleich and Meeson, 1075 Long Pond Road. Private Interment, Holy Sepulchre Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the Humane Society at Lollypop Farm or the charity of one’s choice in her memory.
My deepest condolences to all of Jean Otto’s beloved family. Jean and I became friends, through the grace of God, during the darkest time in our lives, the death of our husbands. We deepened our faith together every Sunday at Hope Church and learned to enjoy life despite our loss. She was a gracious, gentle and humble ‘lady’ who adored her children and grandchildren. Trusting in the promises of our Lord, we will worship and sing 8together again.
