Mary, I tried transmitting a short note to you before to let you know that we share in your loss. I first met Butch when he and Betty worked together at Landstrom's, later through CBMC, while I was in the insurance business and then after we purchased Gospel Garden. I considered him a special friend and though I'll miss him, I know he's at home with the Lord.
All our love and prayers
