Charles Butler Obituary
Chuck was born September 30, 1926, in Victoria, BC, and passed away on his 97th birthday September 30, 2023, predeceased by his wife Julie, who passed away in 2005.
Dad will be missed by his children Greg, Dean (Joy), Mitch (Holly), Todd (Sonia); Papa to his grandkids Jacquelyn (Cody), James, Darci, Joel (Alexandra), Alex (Colin), Chris, Justin; and Papa Chuck to his great-grandkids Nova, Cade, Jacob, Henry, Benjamin.
Chuck grew up in Dunbar/Point Grey, Vancouver, graduated from Kitsilano High and UBC. He raised a family in Lynn Valley, North Vancouver, where they were members at the North Shore Winter Club and retired in Nanoose Bay on Vancouver Island. His career was in insurance - ICBC, Leslie Wright & Rolfe, and Jardine Insurance. He was a lifelong golfer - started by taking a bus to Hastings Golf Course and then as a junior member at Marine Drive, McCleery, Point Grey and Fairwinds. He started shooting his age when he was in his 70s and played his last full game in his early 90s. He had a legacy of many friends and neighbours that always enjoyed his sarcastic wit and humor.
Many thanks to the staff at Evergreen House for taking care of our Dad in the last year of this life. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to Parkinson Society British Columbia.
