Our deepest condolences to the Butto's and the entire family. We are deeply saddened. "Dad", "Grandpa" was a huge part of our life and will be greatly missed. Alexis especially will miss all the talks with him. May he rest in peace and know he is with your mom watching over you. Just know if any of you need anything anytime we are here for you.
