Karen and family…We have been out of touch and didn’t immediately learn of Butch’s passing. We remember the food and drink and laughs we shared, the trip to see Jimmy Buffett, and Mike especially recalls the time he got to ride in the Bonanza with Butch to take a patient to the Shrine Hospital in St. Paul. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Karen, Maria & family ~ Don was my daughter’s favorite pilot with El Kahir Shriners. For years he flew us to her appointments and he truly cared about us. The world lost a terrific man with the biggest of hearts. He will be greatly missed. Heaven gained one of the best angels. Our deepest condolences to you all. May God wrap you all in his loving arms and provide you with comfort, healing and peace. ??????????????
God Bless ~ Toni & Michaella Gallo

Sending you and the girls my deepest condolences and prayers, Aunt Donna. I too will remember and cherish the countless, happy and fun memories I had as a child when dad would drop Pason and I off at your ranch house to play with the girls and follow Uncle Butch around outside. It kind of felt like he enjoyed both entertaining us along with teaching us small ranch life duties during those visits. Pason and I of course, loved it all too, including all the tractor rides, letting us play in the barn, teaching us things about the horses, fishing and also letting us play and explore around the property, letting us get as dirty as we wanted to before dad would pick us up for home. Those were always such fun full days for us and memories will never be forgotten. My love to all of you and to Uncle Butch in Heaven. Love, Shayna

We are so sorry for the loss of your husband, father, and grandfather. Butch was a good neighbor who patrolled the neighborhood on his side by side, usually stopping to share a story! Our deepest sympathy to you all.

We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Butch was always willing to help whether it be when we were building our house to plowing snow out of our long driveway. He will be missed and may he rest in peace. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of his family.

I will always cherish found memories growing up flying around Iowa and playing on the acreage. Always an incredible spirit I learned so much about life and how to enjoy it being around you. Godspeed Uncle Butch
