Janie,

Dorothy and I returned from Florida Thursday. Friday Tom, Butch's long time barber on 7th Street told me of your Dad's passing.

Janie, Steve and Dan,
I have fond memories of your Dad - he was a gentle and wonderful man. I'll never forget the night he drive me home from babysitting and ran over a telephone pole someone had placed across the street - it ruined his axle but he remained calm. It was great getting to know all of you way back then - wishing you all peace and good memories.

Dear Janie,Steve and Dan,
Our families go way back to when our sister, Mickey use to babysit when you were just kids! We'd run in to each other occasionally in the village or downtown at Frank Murphy's.
The Yarmo's (Karen, Neil and Paula)are so sorry for your loss.

Janie,
My deepest condolences to you and yours. Uncle Butch was a great man and will be missed very much! He and my father Joel Bennett are shooting Bluebills and Mallards with all the hunting buddies they have hunted with in the past. Once again our condolences.
Andy & Jill Bennett & Family

Please accept the Peterson family's condolences.
Butch was a treasure.
My family plans to be at the services in force, watch out.
Stu Peterson

Janie, Steve and Dan,

I still have many fond memories of "Uncle Butch". You guys were the best neighbors ever. Dad always said Butch and Irene were one of his best and truest friends.
