I have known Butch for about 60 years. He was Mick´s big brother. He watched us carry on for years until we straightened out. He always had his head on straight. I feel like Stoehr´s are my Wheeling family along with a few others. I´ve around them for good times and bad. Butch was tough He fought through his disease and Sue´s.
We ran many Distance races together. I don´t think he ever beat Sue. He loved cars like we all do. He was a good example to all. I´m going to miss him.
