Not sure what to say?

Graham and family—I was so sorry for the loss of your dad. Fill the hole in your heart with fond memories you had together. I hope you can feel the big hug I ‘m sending your way with lots of love.

Only had three years working with Butch, wish there were many more. Thoroughly enjoyed sharing experiences and learning from each other. He will be truly missed. He was the most talented hard working man I have ever met. I pray God's grace will be with his family during this time. God bless.

Rest in peace Butch. You will be missed by many!!

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

Butch is the GOAT in every bit of the meaning. He is most talented man I have ever had the opportunity to know. It did not matter the subject, situation, or experience you shared with him, he had a life story or idea for everything and shared his knowledge in such a relatable way. I’ve truly enjoyed all the times I spent in his machine shop, working beside him, or playing pool in his garage with him and his son who is one of my best friends. He will be truly missed and my family and I pray...

Sending our deepest sympathies to you all during this difficult time. Growing up living next to Mr. Butch will be something we will always cherish and remember. His smile was always infectious and he always made us laugh when he cracked jokes. He truly will be missed.

Mrs. Mary I am so sorry! Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Our thoughts and many prayers today and in the many days to come. For this entire family.

Butch was the sweetest man. So blessed to have known him. He had a hard fight the last few years with Mary constantly by his side. You two were a perfect couple and thankful God brought you together. Prayers for all the family.
