Not sure what to say?

I have only known Bill for a short time but he has touched my heart. Such a loving and gracious man. I will miss seeing him when I visit my parents. My deepest sympathy goes out to the family.

I first met Bill as a new grad on my first job as a Physical Therapy Assistant. I felt an immediate connection with Bill and I will never forget him. He lit up the therapy gym as soon as he entered the room. I enjoyed every minute I got to spend with him. He was a hard worker and a very sweet man. I will miss him and he frequently comes to mind. Love ya Billy ButzR.I.P buddy

When and if you would ever like to catch up with an old,dear friend please give me a call at 702-301-7318. Sandra Sterling from Wilmington, DE.

Let me add to my bother Jay's comments. Lot's of great memories growing up with Chip, Bill, and Steve and especially early youth with the Boy Scouts. Mr. Butz was always there and supportive as an adult leader and father to all the scouts. Mr. Butz was a mertor for us all and a model ambassador of the community. He will be missed by many.

Chip, Bill and Steve. The Cruikshank brothers send their condolences. Your Dad attended my father's memorial in 2007. It was uplifting to see him. I remember him fondly as an Assistant troop leader at our Boy Scout Troop.
