Please accept my sincere sympathies during this time of grief. Butch was a seasoned friend and freely encouraged and advised me on many occasions. He was not shy about speaking frankly, and frankly, I appreciated that. My memories of Butch make me smile and I hope any grief you have will give way to happier memories.
