Richard Henry Butler, 38, of Moncks Corner, SC passed away on Wednesday, June 12, 2024. 

Born on December 16, 1985 in Barre, VT, he was the son of the late Marsha Hutt Butler and the late Edward Butler. 

Rich was the kindest, most loving, giving, caring man anyone could meet. He loved his family more than life itself. He loved woodworking, gizmos, and gadgets. He really enjoyed making people smile and would light up a room the moment he walked in. He was an amazing husband and father that can never be replaced. 

Richard is preceded in death by his parents. 

Richard is survived by his wife, Lisa Butler; his son, Tyler Powell; his daughter, Taylor Powell; his brother, David Martino (Michelle Martino); his sisters, Debra Martino, Denise Martino, and Crystal Rashford (Jason Rashford); his four nephews, Chris, Ryan, Freddie, and Jonathan; his eight nieces, Amber, Katelyn, Danielle, Charlotte, Nicole, Marleigh, Janiah, and Aaliyah; his five great nieces, Skylar, Winona, Josie, Bailey, and Ella; and his three great nephews, Anthony, Zayden, and Nathaniel.

The memorial service will be held on Sunday, June 16, 2024 at 1:00PM at McAlister-Smith Funeral & Cremation, 869 St. James Ave., Goose Creek, SC 29445.
