James J BUTLER

I am so very, very sorry for your loss...
Jim has always been a remarkable person, friend, husband and father. I truly believe that everyone who knows Jim shares in the feeling of great loss, and is deeply moved by his passing.
But I must add, as a friend of Jim's, that I'm also profoundly grateful to have known him, and that he was a part of my life. A Renaissance man and a polymath, no subject was beyond his far-ranging intellect and inexhaustible curiosity. His enthusiasm...

Dear Lish - I was so sad to hear about Jim when Mike told me several months ago and my heart broke terribly to hear he passed away. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. You are a strong women and sweet soul and I send much love to you.
I will always remember Jim as a funny, witty smart man who was loved by many. His love of children was so evident as he always asked about my girls and enjoyed every ballet performance I always saw him at. He loved his nieces Paige and...

Dear Lish,
I wrote in Jim's guest book and realized I had forgot to add my name.
Andy Campbell from St Augustine.
You both are in my prayers and thanks for all your help over the years.

i never had a question that couldn't be answered by Jim...how many inches the bars needed to be separated on a crib to some complicated philosophical issue. He was modest about his intellect but you always appreciated his willingness to share his knowledge. You were toast in a game of Trivial Persuit should you go up against him.

Dear Lish -- I was so saddened to learn of Jim's death. I always enjoyed working with you and Jim; he was the epitome of a gentleman and always kind and considerate. The love between you was always so obvious and evident. Please know I am sending you hugs and prayers and deepest of sympathies. Kathy Cabre Enloe (Esquire Reporting, Inc.)

Dear Lish, I am so sorry for your loss. Jim was truly a beacon of hope for me when I needed it and so sweet to my Alicia. We still listen to Abaco Sound in the evening during our quiet time. I will remember Jim as one of the sweetest men I have ever met. My prayers are with you during this time.

I am so sorry to hear of Jim's passing. He was a great friend of my late husband, Bob Wamnes. They shared making an album together, Abaco Sound. Jim was a great man and Bob did lots of teak work on his boat. We shared many laughs with him. God bless you, Jim. Rest in Peace!!

Dear Lish,
I'm so sorry for your loss of Jim. I'll always remember the times I bumped into you and Jim at Alice's and Basil Garden Thai, and then joined you for lunch. Jim was wonderful company-brilliant and fun. He will be greatly missed by all who know him. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Lish, I am very sorry for your loss of Jim. Jim was a fine man and a true friend to me and my family. My prayers for comfort and peace are with you always. Fondly, Dorothy Cristaldi
