Kent BUTLER Obituary

BUTLER, Kent Kent Michael Butler, 63, of Alpharetta, GA died February 16, 2019, after 2 years of fighting cancer selflessly and endlessly to give his family a little more time.

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, March 9, 2019, at 10:30 a.m. at St. Benedict's Catholic Church with Father Paul Flood serving as Celebrant. Mr. Butler was a member of St. Benedict's Catholic Church and was Vice President of Service Administration for AGCO Corporation. Kent continues to be loved by his wife, Mary Helen Butler; children, Kent Michael Butler, Emily Elizabeth Butler, Hannah Lois Butler, and Madison Marie Butler; sister and brother-in-law, Denise and Kenny Abraham; sisters-in-law, Jane Scott and Susan Beauvais; and brother and sister-in-law, Greg and Pam Beauvais.

God has given us a life span of 70 and 80 years if we are strong. May you celebrate a life well lived and loved by many. Psalms 90:10 May the God who "binds up the brokenhearted" and "comforts all who mourn" (Isaiah 61:1, 2) sustain your family during this challenging time. Please accept my heartfelt sympathy.
