💔It is with profound sadness, and still a lot of shock, we share that Butch passed away earlier this week. We are heartbroken to hear of his sudden and unexpected passing and honestly, I still can't believe I'm posting this right now.
Butch was a good friend, who always had a great story to make you laugh. He was there when you called, or if you didn't, he'd get genuinely offended - Why didn't you call me? He told you the truth you needed to hear, and sometimes it stung, but he still liked you anyway and then he'd buy you a beer. Whether you knew him 30 years, or met him on his bike last week at a bbq joint, it was all the same to him.
Most importantly, Butch was so proud of the family he and Gina created. Their children were his absolute pride and joy. He was a present and loving father and that was always priority one. Please hold them all in your hearts in this devastating time.
He put hundreds of you on motorcycles, and stopped a few of you from doing it, because he cared about each one of you as if you were one of his own.
🫶Please share a memory of Butch below. He was loved by many, and his huge personality will leave a hole that will never be filled.
Gina has said "let's pack the place" so Butch's arrangements are below. Stop by and share a story, for Butch.
Wednesday, July 15, from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m.
Newcomer Funeral Home, 2636 Ridgeway Avenue, Rochester, NY
Memorial contributions may be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
Ride in paradise Brother. ✌️
