James Kimes Obituary
Butch was born on May 25, 1942, in Phoenix, Az. He completed his education studies for teaching at ASU but never took a teaching job due to the fact of low pay. After a long career as a bank supervisor, he retired early at age 52 to fish and hunt, which were his true passions. He also taught Kim and Jimmy about fishing and hunting.
The good old days found Butch at one of the Arizona Lakes (Pleasant, Bartlett, Roosevelt and so on) standing in his bass boat, reeling in a Big Bass to win a Bass Tournament and bring home the bacon (prize money). Also, he loved Hunting and was successful in bringing home several Elk including a 6-point, Mule Deer, White Tail Deer, and Turkey.
He had a great sense of humor and loved to joke around. We will really miss him!
