Memories and Condolences
for Timothy Butler

Not sure what to say?





Upon our recent return from a vacation overseas, my family learned of the passing of my good friend, Tim Butler. Nothing that I can type will express my sadness over hearing the news. Tim was a special person and a great friend. I will miss him very much. I have no doubt that he went straight to heaven, flashed a big smile, and became a friend to every soul around him. That is how he lived his life. That is why he was such a great guy.

On behalf of my wife, Erika, and our entire family I want to wish the best to Peggy, Reagan, Declan and the entire Butler family. You are in our thoughts and prayers, always.
