Dear Judy, I was shocked and very sad to hear about Butchie. I've known him all my life.His mom and mine were best friends.Kitty was my sisters and my godmother, so as kids growing up in Bayville, we spent a lot of time together with David and Butch. I have many good memories of those years. We lost touch for a long time when I moved to Florida but my husband Ed and I did get to have a nice visit with Butch when we came up to see Kitty a year or two before she passed away. I didn't know that it would be the last time I'd see him. We both send our sympathy and our prayers to you and the rest of your family at such a very sad time. Sincerely, Pat (Watts) Knoop

Dear Judy,Eddie,Stacey,David,Rob, and Nancy. Nothing I can ever say will show you all how much I loved Butch and how much we will all miss him. Years ago when he and Al went for Pizza, we could never believe the stories they would tell when they got home. I'll never forget the card games and all the fun we had. Now Butch and Al are together in Heaven getting to know each other again. I will deeply miss him. Love Andrea
