Butch was an avid outdoorsman and loved to hunt, fish, and work with heavy equipment.  He also loved to watch westerns and football and looked forward to weekly card games with his friends.  He was a loving husband, father figure, grandfather, cousin, and friend, and his family and friends will miss him tremendously.
