Butler, Richard age 62, passed away peacefully on July 20 from complica- tions of pneumonia. He is preceded in death by his son, Justin and survived by his wife, Sharon and son, Mason. Rick devoted his life selflessly to God, his family, his men's fellow- ship and his hot rods. Though he had battled cancer for several years, his stubborn nature fought back until his body could no longer contain his spirit. All who knew Rick were touched by this spirit and its quirks.
