So sorry to hear about the passing of "Buttnz". I would always beg my mom to take us kids to Kids Night at Sirloin Stockade so we could get balloon animals from Buttnz and Bowz. Such a fun guy. Prayers to his family during this time.

Sending love and many fond memories of Buttnz and Bowz at Ball Hospital, and working with children at local Clowning Programs at schools.
Your gift and passion for making others' lives a little brighter will live on in thousands of hearts and memories. Thank You.
