Diane and Family,
So sorry for your loss.I will remember your family in prayer. I didn't know Butch very well, I met him through my husband who had worked for Bucklers. He was a very kind man and I can still see his smile. So wonderful to know you will see him again and also to know he is with his Heavenly Father. May God keep you and comfort you in your time of sorrow. God Bless you all.

My staff and I will always miss Butch's kidding around and nick names for all the staff and I personally will miss a very good friend and associate in the transportation industry. The way he put a spin on things and situations made it that more interesting to work with him. His hard work in transportation safety and compliance was a never ending battle, always something more to absorb. He will be surely missed by all who was affected by him with his kindness and goodness of heart. God Bless You!

Words cannot describe how sorry I am for the loss of Butch. He will be greatly missed by everyone he has touched in his lifetime. The lanes just won't be the same without him there joking around, being loud, and making everyone laugh. My sympathy and prayers are with you. I'll miss you, Buddy.

Butch was a truly special man who possessed the warmest heart, greatest sense of humor, and most selfless attitude one will ever find in a person. The most numerous memories I have of Butch are set at the DuBois Lanes where he donated his time to helping kids, such as my brother, improve upon their bowling techniques. Needless to say, Butch will be greatly missed by so many people. I am very blessed to have known Butch and his family, whom I offer my deepest sympathies in their time of grief.

We were deeply saddened to learn about your sudden loss. Our family will always remember Butch's belly laughs, jokes and all around sillyness. When we hear thunder, we will know he is now bowling in Heaven. Hope your memories of happier times will help you through the grieving process.

I try to hold on to this world,
with everything I have,
But I feel the weight of what it brings,
and the hurt that tries to grab,
Many trials it seem to never end;
as word declares this truth,
We will enter in this rest, with wonders anew,
But I hold on to this hope,
and the promise HE brings,
There will be a place where no more suffering,
There will be a day, with no more tears,
no more pain, no more fears,
There will be a day when the burdens of this place
will be no more,
We'll see Jesus face to face,
But until that day,
we'll hold on to you always;
