Diana and family,
My wife Chris and I are very sorry about the loss of your father.
I didn't realize your family is from Penna. I grew up in Patton, Pa. just about 30 miles north of Johnstown. I now work with Diana at Navy Federal. Our deepest
sympathy.

I knew Butch decades ago as we were growing up - Sandy and I were classmates at Sacred Heart and I used to visit the Yinglings regularly. Time and distance have caused separation but never the memories. My thoughts are with you, the family, as your loss

Scripture promises peace and life eternal, so that is our hope for a reunion in God's time. For now, savor all that Butch gave you and give thanks for that

God bless you all
