Butch(Charles) was a great person, friend, mentor. I have many great memories. My condolences to the family. Will miss talking to him and hanging out out with him, especially when racing up that hill loaded. He always had the big motors and shiny trucks. Looked good in every aspect of living life! Rest in peace.

I didn't have the fortune of meeting you Charlie, but through my son Cody which was one of your golf buddies at Pleasant Hills I thought I knew you.
