“Uncle Butch”
I was so saddened by the news that you were no longer with us.
As my uncle you played a unique role in my life, offering support, guidance, and friendship.
Our life as niece and uncle were some of the best memories I have from childhood. Not sure where to begin, I have so many fond memories of you.
- Camping trips where we all crunched into that little orange and white Shasta like sardines. We sang songs and you told ghost stories.
- You gave me a dime to give you back massages. When I thought you were asleep, I would sneak out of the room and then you catch me.
- You showed me how to keep my milk cold by adding crushed ice. (I still drink it like this).
- Haunted houses you took me too, which scared the crap out of me, but you comforted me and said it wasn't real.
- The time Grandma forced you to take me with you and your date to the Drive-in Theater. I could never see the movie from the back seat of your mustang, so I ended up going to sleep.
- Watching old Clint Eastwood movies on weekends.
- All of us getting together to watch the Wizard of Oz at Grandma’s house once a year.
- You took me with you White Water Rafting in PA. One of the most exciting adventures I had when I was a kid.
- All the Halloween parties you had on Billy’s birthday, you always went to the extreme and had the best parties.
- You asked me to be in your wedding.
- You helped me purchase my townhouse in Laurel, which, that took an exceptional amount of patience.
You were always the life of the party; your laughter was loud and contagious.
Telling your jokes and doing your funny impressions. You always gave the best advice, hugs, and you always cared about the family’s happiness and well-being. You were a role model for all of us. You always had a positive outlook on life....
Grandma use to get after you for always showing up late for family gatherings, and she would say, "you are going to be late for your own funeral," well here we are...not your fault this time.
The memories of you will last a lifetime in my heart. You were the best “Uncle” any niece could ask for….
RIP Uncle Butch – You will always be loved and missed by many.
