Butch was an avid fisherman and hunter. He was a proud member of the NRA and was always available to Pick and Grin. One of Butch’s greatest honors was to chauffeur people around for waterskiing, fishing, or sightseeing at Lake Ivie. He had a life philosophy of work hard, play hard, rest hard.

The family would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to Evona Adickes and Joe and Shawn Walston for their care of Butch.

In lieu of flowers, the family request memorials be made to the Paint Rock Volunteer Fire Department, the American Cancer Society, or a favorite charity.
