Febe, I am at a loss for words. I already miss Butch so much. The other day I sat just remembering some of the times we shared. Fourth of July and Thanksgiving gatherings at mom's house. Reading the Christmas story and getting our buckets of cookies. Mostly, I remember our time together...just me and Butch. I would pick him up and he would go with me to Costco. We talked and shared stories...he always made me laugh. Butch, as much as I will miss you, I know you are in a better place. I thank God for your salvation because I know I will see you again. I love you and miss you. Your sis, Linda

Ano, Britney, Courtney, Douglas: I will never forget the time your dad and I found out we were related...having known him in high school as a crazy, fun loving guy, I thought it was so cool to be related. He always treated me, auntie Danielle, our girls, and grandma as loving as he did you guys. I will pray for stregnth and endurace for all of you. Do what is right and take care of your mom...you may not know it now, but you kids have the best of parents...they loved you, cared for you, protected you and comforted you...now it is your turn to care of mom.
Love auntie Linda

Bermodes family, I’m very sorry to hear of Butch’s passing. Although I did not have the opportunity to know him well, his brothers and sisters share a great admiration of him. I certainly enjoyed talking with Butch at Ray and Francis’s Thanksgiving dinners. It was very evident how important family was to him. You are all in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Brother

There comes a time in everyone’s life when you lose someone you love. They are here today but gone tomorrow to a better place. When I think of times we shared those childhood memories I cannot be sad…
I am sitting in my room looking at the golden frame, remembering the simple days when life was just a game…
Times when we played and joked although sometimes you could be rough, you always kept me tough. I know we didn’t always see eye to eye but, you were always there when I really needed you, even when I cried.
When I think of your life on earth, and all those loving years because I am only human, they are bound to bring me to tears. I am not afraid to cry, it does relieve the pain. I remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain. Butch, I will miss u!but no I will see u again. Your little sister Duckie

Dear Febe & Children,
Praying that God will comfort you and give you his strength during this difficult time. Grieving with you and sharing in the loss of your husband.
Love and prayer...
Your Cousin,
Walter, Marilyn Justo & family

To the memory of my dear friend Mariano:

We shared many experiences together while we were students at Delta College. I fondly remember our bike rides to Lodi, attending Escrima events, sharing meals, and hanging out. It impressed me of how your life had changed as a father. I am shocked to hear of your passing, and I am grateful to have known you. I have thought of you often over the years, and I wish I could have had some time to become close again. My thoughts and prayers to your wife, children, and family.

Our condolences are with you and your family. May God bless you all.
