Butch enjoyed NASCAR racing, buying and selling cars, spending time in the garage listening to country music, hanging out with family and many, many friends, especially Mike Teats who was always there for him when he really needed someone. Mike was a special friend to Butch. And we can't forget scratch-off lottery tickets with his mom. They were always looking for a quick way to get rich.

Butch was a very hard worker, always willing to help anyone who needed it. He worked for Kitko Wood Products, then for the remainder of his working years he worked for a railroad contractor. He was always up for a good time and will always be remembered for his big smile and laughter.

In addition to his father, he was preceded in death by a brother, Gerald "Jerry" Litzinger, and a sister, Roxanne Carter.
