Butch sent out a Majestic DVD, pictures from our Boone School Days to our trip this year to Lake Geneva. The 29 of us that met this year celebrated your life, you were really missed.
Will not forget what an important part you have played in all of our lives.

Butch has been a great friend to all Majestics – perhaps our most loyal and devoted member. It’s funny that I remembered him from high school as our toughest person, that is, the guy you would most like to have along if someone wanted to pick a fight with you. But as I rekindled my friendship with him in middle age, he seemed like the most gentle soul we had in the group. He was in many ways a big bundle of lovable opposites who was kind and sensitive but by appearances could pass for someone...

One of my great delights in attending our get togethers was seeing Butch for the first time and getting a "Butch Bearhug" and seeing that great big happy smile again. We will all miss him but he will always be in our memories and forever a Majestic. Our love and condolences to his family. Jerry and Marcia Chapnick

Dear Bobbie and Family:

If it's true that every exit is an entrance somewhere else, then we'll all be seeing Butch again. That will be wonderful.

Until then I am going to miss him.

DEAR BOBBY AND FAMILY :
MY FONDEST MEMORIES OF BUTCH ARE FROM OUR HIGH SCHOOL DAYS. I HUNG OUT WITH BUTCH ALL THE TIME. HE WAS A GREAT GUY TO BE WITH, ESPECIALLY THE TIME A BUNCH OF US GOT INTO A DISPUTE WITH SOME OLDER GUYS ON A SUMMER NIGHT. I TRULY WILL MISS HIM. HOWARD FOHRMAN

Dear Family, Friends and Majectics,
A simple thank you to you all just doesn't express the appreciation I feel for all your wonderful memories and kind words for Butch.
So many of you called him "friend", but I was even more fortunate, I called him "best friend". We were so much more than just brothers. We were truly connected. The Majectics have extented to me an invitation to be with you at your Saturday night dinner for a "Lets Remember Butch Night". I am honored that you...

Dear Bobbie, Skip and the family
Our sincere sympathy to your family from ours. I feel having known Butch for all these years was a blessing to all of us. The stories and memories we shared will not be forgotten. His presence will be missed along with his sense of humor and wonderful disposition.

Butch was Butch. No pretense, no airs. He was who he was and I always looked forward to his honesty and straight talking. I'd rather have Butch here, but will have to settle for the memories. Our condolences to all of his family.

Alan Metnick and Family

Dear Bobbi and Skippy,

First some words from the Talmud that may bring a small measure of consolation:

"The deeper the sorrow, the less tongue it has."

But here a few more words are in order. It's ironic that one of the toughest -- if not the toughest -- guys in high schools turned out to be the sweetest guy around.

That word comes to the lips of every Majestic as we recall our lost buddy.
