To Pat & Ron & Families,
Chuck & I have fond memories of our conversations with your dad at family gatherings. We always enjoyed seeing him and will miss him a great deal. He had such a great sense of humor! You could also tell how much he loved his grandchildren when he would talk about them. They were the apples of his eye! Our deepest condolences on your loss!
We loved ya, Uncle Butch, and we'll miss you! At least you & Aunt Fran are together again!
