There is no easy way to tell you this, buy I think i found your Otis Weed and he is deceased. Here is his entry in the Social Security Death Index

Social Security Death Index
about Otis J. Weed
Name: Otis J. Weed
SSN: 249-22-1960
Last Residence: 29016 Blythewood, Richland, South Carolina, United States of America
Born: 14 Sep 1924
Died: 5 Feb 1993
State (Year) SSN issued: South Carolina (Before 1951 )

You might want to contact the local library in that locality and try to order the obituary or order his death certificate from the county Clerk. It should list his cause of death, his parents, and where he is interred. I am so sorry i don't have better news. I hope this helps. Blessings

EDIT: I found a marriage record in Broward County, Florida from January 1956 between Georgianna Elwanda Ramsey and Otis Jimmie Weed.
Marriage Date: Jan 1956
County of Marriage: Broward
Volume: 1582
Certificate: 236
Source: Florida Department of Health

I noticed in the social security death index that his middle initial may have been J. With south Carolina being in close proximity to Florida, I wonder if this marriage may have been one of his.
