Dear Lewis, Ken, Chris-

So sorry to hear about the passing of Butchie (as Dennis would call him). I always enjoyed talking with him whenever we crossed paths. We had a way of always giving each other a hard time (in a good way)! He was a good guy. He will be missed.
Regards,
The Callahan Family

CandleWe are so sorry to hear of the loss of Butch! He could always put a smile on his face. We loved hearing of his memories of 9mile with Harold! Later on at Ed's place you could count on him watching out for you! If you knew Butch you knew how much his family meant to him. We knew how much he loved you all and pray that the precious memories you have help you through this difficult time. Know that we will miss him with you! With prayers and sympathy, Bubba and Beth
