I am so very sorry. Words cannot describe how I feel. I am very sad that I cannot be there. I loved Butch. I have so any fond memories. Mickey, you are the best. You did not leave his side. No one could have done more than you did.
Please give my best wishes to your family. Give my regards to Earl. The world will not be the same without him.
