Butch loved nature and the outdoors. He had a passion for fishing, hunting, and skeet and trap shooting. Butch was a 50 year member of Local 67 Plumbers and Pipefitters union and a lifetime member of the Mohawk Gun Club. Butch was a very social person and seemed to come across someone he knew everywhere he went. He was known for putting others before himself and always offered to help anyone he could. Throughout his many years of pain and suffering from diabetes related health issues, Butch always had a very positive outlook on life. Above all, Butch loved his wife, children, and grandchildren more than anything in this world. His family brought him great joy! Butch’s passing brings sorrow to those he leaves behind but we can rejoice with him knowing that his pain and suffering are over. He is in heaven with his Saviour, looking down on us with great joy.
