Aunt Elaine, Beth, Tammy: I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I was at church this morning and had a beautiful memory of Uncle Butchy laughing and smiling. I know he is home with the Lord. Please know my heart aches for you, and yet my heart is with you always in love. Uncle Butch truly made a difference in this world.
