Walter and I worked together for 23 years. He was a good friend and we had many fun times. My prayers for his sister and family.
I knew Butch to be a fine man and honorable. I knew him from high school and at Schreiner Institute when I was there in the junior college division before going to Aggieland. 1962-64.

Butch was a childhood friend and neighbor who I was blessed to have spent an afternoon with on a trip back home. We spent hours catching up and remembering some of our childhood antics. His laughter was infectious during that time and it was a joy to spend time looking back with him. He was a wonderful man, a friend and will be greatly missed. My heartfelt condolences to his sister Jerry and the rest of his family. Rest in peace Butchie. You were one of a kind!
My deepest sympathy. Butch was a good friend to Jerry and I. I hope he and Jerry are talking about all the fun we had together and they are both in a better place now.
