Dear Sharon, Eric, Sebastian, Paytun, and the whole Wiernik family. I am sorry I was not able to make the funeral home for the viewing but you have my sincere condolences on the passing of Butch. I met him several times and always thought he was a real nice guy. I'm sure he will be greatly missed.

Dear Ed, Jimmie, Eric, JoAnn and Elaine. I just heard of your dads passing later today and I want to extend to you my condolences and heart felt sympathy for your loss. Your father and my Uncle Butch was to me a mans man...an example of a modern day Hercules or Samson. When I was just a small boy I watched him hold his son (had to be Eddie)in the palm of his hand, with his arm out stretched...I was blown away! I have to be honest and tell you in my teenage years I tried very hard to emulate your dad in strength and fighting prowless, for he had a reputation of someone you would not want to mess with! I cannot give you a comparison of our fighting abilities, but I will tell you that once I faced off with your dad in a challege (by me) of "Mercy". I was as strong as a bull (so I believed) and in all the hundreds of times I had competed with other boys and men, I had never lost. It took your father all of a moment to totally crush me and I have to tell you my hands hurt for days! lol Lifting bricks and cinder blocks is a lot different doing reps with barbells! He remained someone to look up to and to idolize. But although at times I thought he might had been a little rough on you guys, it is my opinion that he was getting you ready for the rough road ahead. Life is hard and its really not for the weak. I know that he loved you and your Mom with his whole heart and even though he's gone, never forget that. In time the sorrow will fade, but never forget him and always pray for him. I know he will be in mine. Now all the brothers and sisters are gone, but hopefully they are together and are happy and will be forever. Now its our time to finish what they all started. We need to remember what we were taught, hold no grudges and be as good as we can be to one another. We are all we have left. Once again you have my sincere sympathy. Your cousin, Arn
