My condolences to the Butts and Watkins family. I will miss seeing Mr. Butts at different functions, our family had. He was always so positive and comical. (I used to joke with him all the time.) What a blessing he was to his family and friends. Rest, Mr. Butts, you have accomplished your mission here.

Although this doesn’t feel real, I know God has received another precious Angel. My Daddy was the first man in my life that touched my heart. He taught me to drive. He showed me how to pump gas and change a tire. I am a Daddy’s girl. Daddy is resting now in the arms of our Lord. He is probably saying “ I have found that bright side!” Hallelujah! I will always love you Daddy and I am missing my “Ready Freddie”.
