Not sure what to say?

I was deeply saddened when I learned of Mike's passing. My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family and friends. Although it has been many years since Mike and Wendy left the Windsor area I still think of them fondly from time to time. When I worked with Mike at Coca-Cola he was always one to take things easy while the rest of us had mixed feelings of difficult customers and he had a calming effect on us. Mike always got the job done whether at work or at home. He will truly be missed...

So very sorry for your loss, and although we are far away Wendy, you are very much in our thoughts. So many wonderful memories from years gone by, and music always at the heart of it.

During our time at South Delta Baptist Church, Wendy and Mike were one of the memorable couples who blessed us in so many ways. Being new to the Vancouver area, Mike was an anchor for me-not only his friendship and hospitality, but he was the solid drummer that laid the foundation for our worship together. Memories of Mike include taking me to a blues club downtown, having long philosophical conversations about jazz and music, and worshiping together at South Delta. Our humble condolences...

When a loved one passes on, they are remembered by family and friends by telling stories of a funny moment or a special feat, kindness, talent. How they contributed to the community, how they make others feel. Mike ( Butts to his musical family ) was the best of what it meant to be a man. He was strong, a man's man with a gentle soul. Interesting and always made the person he took time to listen to feel special. I'd known Mike since I was 17, playing together in a traveling recording band...

Bill Loop,

Mike and Wendy although not related were/are our family. My husband Bill and I were from NS and he met Mike at work. They were at our marriage our children's birth. I don't remember a time that Mike was angry. He was always welcoming to everyone who was in his presence. His smile was contagious. Such a loss for Wendy and family but Mike filled their life with love. generosity,music and laughs and our family were fortunate to get a piece of it. Love to you all, Michele
