Condolence: Butch and I {Carl} have been best friends since we met in 1959 when his family moved from Ferndale to Florida Location. We had a lot of good times over the years especially as teammates in the U.P. Babe Ruth league baseball tournament, as well as my golf partner of years. After we completed our military service in 68 we ended up living together in Minneapolis in 1969. where because of his insistence we go to a particular establishment, I met Connie (my wife), butch always took credit for Connie and I meeting, and he was right. Connie and I will miss you old friend.

Condolence: Another good member of the Class of 65. Butch was always a friend to many, my old neighbor from Florida Location, & classmate who was kind to everyone. Butch you will be missed. Paul Fredrickson

Condolence: Rest in Peace Butch. We sure had some great times together during our CHS days. You were one of the best baseball hitters I played with and against in our younger days.

Condolence: Good bye my friend. Carl and I will get to Waasa for final visit as soon as we get back to the Copper Country. R

Condolence: We will miss talking sports with Butch at Rocky's on Tuesday afternoons. He was a good guy.
