  1. Butch sure miss you at the garage. You could always make us laugh. Fly high my friend will never for get you.
    Condolences to the family. RIP

  2. My dearest friend, you befriended me the moment we met. There are no words to express how truly heartbroken I am. I hold so so many memories close to my heart. You are, by far, my best friend. You traveled to Seattle with me and stayed. Thirsty Thursday was a ritual when we worked at the bank. I made sure you had a fresh, hot coffee waiting for you every morning at the bank. I smile when I remember our walk around Devils Tower, once you read there could be rattle snakes you held my arm tightly like I could save you from the villains. I don’t know how to get along without you. I only had to call and we picked up right from where we left off. May God wrap you in his arms and hold you close my friend. You can now be with the love of your life, may Matt keep you safe until we meet again in heaven. You may be gone but never ever forgotten. I love you Butch.

  3. I will miss you Butch, Your wit and your charm. You were so clever and insprational. I will always hold you dear to my heart. Rest in Peace.

  4. Thank you for being my treasured friend and soulful guide. You are missed and deeply loved
