Butch loved classic cars, drag racing, and NASCAR. One of his prized possessions was his 1937 Ford, which he cruised around and took to many car shows. Some of his favorite pastimes included racing motorcycles, going to Glamis, taking his boat to the river, and kicking back in his garage with his friends. He also enjoyed landscaping, carpentry, sports and camping. 

Butch loved to spend time with his family and friends. He had a great sense of humor and was always ready for a good time. He was very loved by everyone around him and will be missed dearly and remembered fondly for the countless great memories shared with his family and many close friends. 

You are forever in our hearts. We love you.
