Joyce- I haven't seen you in many years, but wanted to extend my sympathy in Jim's death. In reading his obit, it is clear that he was a

I am so sorry to hear about this. And I thank Frances O for keeping me posted. Curtis Adams and I were the first "boy" cheer leaders at Butler. I graduated in '53. May God bless and comfort you.

I pray God's Blessings upon the entire Buttram family - those first years of Butler High have not, nor will they be equaled - Jim was one of it's brightest stars.

I sincerely extend my sympathies for your loss. I graduated from Butler High School in 1954 and remember Jimmy as a great football player for the Butler Rebels. I remember him as a favorite in his class as well as in football.
