STACY BUTCHER Obituary

STACY NICOLE BUTCHER Stacy Nicole Butcher, age 49, passed away at her home on Sunday July 14, 2024. She was born in Lima, Ohio on March 23, 1975 to Don and Laura Clevenger who survive. Stacy is survived by her loving husband, Steven Butcher. The two were married on June 8, 2002 in Gatlinburg, TN. Stacy is also survived by her daughter, Addyson Butcher. She is survived by her sister, Elisa Clevenger and Mark Schroeder and her brother DJ (Amy) Clevenger. Also surviving are her Mother-In-Law, Sue (Bob Barnt) Butcher, her Father-In-Law, Norm (Carolyn Mikesell) Butcher, Brother-In-Law, Derek (Nicole) Butcher, Sister-In-Law, Stephanie (Casey) Watercutter, and nieces and nephews: Eli Schroeder, Evan (Emily Ostendorf) Schroeder, Cohen Clevenger, Vivian Clevenger, Violet Clevenger, Vera Clevenger, Peyton and Rori Butcher, Vivian Watercutter, Dylan and Everett Watercutter, Axel Butcher and several aunts, uncles and cousins. Stacy is preceded in death by her grandparents: Don (Dolores) Thornton and Jay (Doris) Clevenger. Stacy graduated from Columbus Grove High School in 1993. She received her Bachelor degree from BGSU, where she was also the school mascot, Frieda Falcon. Stacy went on to complete her Masters in School Counseling from the University of Dayton. Before her 26 year teaching career at Ottawa Glandorf, she would get up early in the morning to pick corn at Suters Produce then head to the Columbus Grove pool where she was a manager and lifeguard. Stacy was extremely active in the community and was a member of Sigma Kappa Sorority, the Columbus Grove Community Choir, and Lima Community Church of the Nazarene where she could be found volunteering with the children's ministry. Stacy was a humble servant of the Lord and was known for putting others first. Anyone who had the pleasure of meeting her would say she lit up the room with her witty personality. Visitation will be held at Hartman Sons Funeral Home in Columbus Grove on Wednesday July 17, 2024 from 6pm until 8pm. Additional visitation will be on Thursday July 18, 2024 from 2pm until 4pm and then from 6pm until 8pm.

Burial will follow at Truro Cemetery in Columbus Grove. The family asks that memorial contributions be made to OGCTA Scholarship Fund or Lima Community Church of the Nazarene Children's Ministry

To Laura, Don, Steve and all of the family. I´ve been lifting you all up in prayer ever since hearing the news of Stacy´s passing. It was a delight to know her and have her as a student when teaching at C.G.
The last time I saw Stacy was when out shopping and she greeted me with her beautiful smile and a hug. May God comfort and give the peace that only he can give as we say our earthly good byes, and await a heavenly reunion for eternity. My love and hugs to all.
