Butch was a great caring person. He attended school with my mom Carolina Porter and he and Lois was very good friends .
Steve and I enjoyed our visits with Butch several times a week .
We hadn’t seen him in a few months , was very unusual, Steve checked in on him a couple times. I’m sorry we didn’t know he was ill .
He will be missed for sure , now he is happy to be home with his loving wife Louis . Sending prayers to his family .
