Mary Jo,
You and Butch were great friends with our family when we were growing up! You were close with my mom, Bea West. I will always remember you guys and I pray you have peace in your heart knowing he's in a better place. Now he has no pain. It's taken me a long time to realize this about my own mother but it is true. May God bless you and comfort you in your time of sorrow.

It is with deepest sadness that I extend my condolences to you on the loss of your beloved. There are no words that I can say that will make your loss any easier. However, I would like you to know that I am sincerely thankful for his bravery and great sacrifice to our great country.
As Chair of the Senate Committee on Veteran Affairs and Military Installations, I pray that the deep hurt you feel is in some part eased by the feeling of great pride for his valor and deep sense of patriotism.
He will be dearly missed by all who were fortunate enough to have known him. May God give you and yours strength and courage. May the love and the wonderful memories you shared with him help you when you need it most. Please know that he will never be forgotten and your family will be remembered in my prayers.
Sincerly,
Helen Tiseth

I first met John, Butch as I knew him, in the late 60's. He was one of the most caring and friendly person I've known, and a true friend. He and Mary Jo stood up for us at my wedding. You will be truly missed Butch, but I know you are in a much better place. May you rest in peace. You and Mary Jo have been such wonderful friends. My thoughts and prayers are with you both.

I knew him as Hawg for many years when I was a member of Gypsy M/C. He was always quick with a smile and a hearty hug. He will be missed by a great many people. Ride free and easy Hawg, you earned it.
