Butch was a great man, a great friend, and an all around fun person to be around.  I personally have a great deal of respect for him and will miss him dearly.

Butch taught me a lot of what I know as a mechanic, and I want to repay him in any way that I can.  He was a unique character, but one that I am glad i crossed paths with in life.  I doubt there is anyone that met him that wishes they hadn't.

He died last night in his sleep at the age of 44.  He has 2 kids that are devastated, and was a master mechanic by trade.  Butch was someone you were glad to be part of your life, and someone that no matter how much distance there was, you will still miss him.

I have lost my father several years back, and I know the hurt and the pain and the confusion his family is going through right now.  Its un-bearable.  I wish I could help out more, but for now this is all I can do.  

So to help them out, I am starting this, to help fund any and all of the expenses that are coming with the funeral arrangements.  I know some of you don't have a lot, but evry dollar is 1 less dollar the family will have to sell something to get.  So Please share as much as you can.

I know that I do not want to see his family have to sell anything of his just to pay for this.  And I hope none of you do either.
