My condolences to the Butticci family. I knew the family as Wendy was my classmate at SWHS and lived just up the road a bit on Hwy 9 North in SW. When we were kids the Butticci family was very welcoming and warm. Invited you in, fed you and always made sure you felt like family. My prayers go out to you in your time of loss.

My father was the best father I could've asked for and I sorely miss him. He lived a long, beautiful life and now he's up with Mom and Wendy. God bless you, dad
