Butch gave me a chance to play at several events. He was a kind, inspiring man. He was a rare combination of being a great entertainer, musician and promoter. He would give anyone a chance. He was of course a great example of a Christian. He will be missed sorely. God bless his family.

Butch certainly left his mark in this world and will be sorely missed. He had faith in his God and country, loved his family and friends, and believed in himself. He was one of a kind, with a big heart. It is sad to lose someone so dedicated to others. I wish peace for all who mourn his loss.

Dear Marilyn, Still hard to fathom Butch won't be here for you or us anymore. We are so deeply sorry for your loss and will keep praying for you always. God cares for the widows. He knows their hearts when this great loss occurs so asking the Lord to comfort and sooth the pain of his absence. I never knew how many lives he touched till now but I know you were his heart. God will get you through this and I know you trust Him. Love from Chris and Charlie at church.

Marilyn my heart is breaking for you, we haven´t seen each other in a few years but I´m here if you need anything! I couldn´t believe when I heard it, I just ran into Butch a few months ago picking up your coffee at Sheetz! God bless you all!
