I just learned today that Frank had passed away. I'm out west visiting family. I always had a great love and respect for Frank and Mary. One of my first assignments was to be their home teacher out on the farm and I always enjoyed those visits. Frank was a great example to all of the Saints living in the Louisville Crestwood area. He and Mary were true pioneers of the church. I send my love and condolences to each member of the family. I know that we all receive assurances that we shall all gather together as families and friends

I have so many fond memories of the Button family. I still remember the Easter Egg hunts on the Button farm. What fun! As a teenager I would go visit my sister Nancy and Bob. Sometimes we would have Sunday dinners with Frank and Marie. Frank was so kind to us all. Our love goes out to all the Button family. Know that you are loved in Ohio!
