To the family of Butch, we extend our deepest condolences. Butch has always been a close friend to all of us in our family, including a note to me just a short time ago. We shall hold deep to our hearts the fond memories of our friendship & times with Butch for a lifetime. Rest in peace Butch till we meet again. God bless you.
I worked with Phil many years ago at "Erika" home dialysis supplies in Delran. He was always a kind and helpful man. Always a hello and can I do something for you. So sorry to learn of his passing.
God bless.

We are sorry we missed Butch's viewing and funeral. We were away. I had known Butch most of my life, having gone to school with him all the way through school in Palmyra, and we graduated together in 1963. He was always a good person with a kind word for everyone. I last saw him at our 50th class reunion three years ago. He was not feeling well but came anyway. May he Rest in Peace. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family at this time. Peace!
My father, Philip, was by far the greatest dad I could ever have hoped for. For all the times in my life that I screwed up, he was always there to lend me advice or help of any sort, and guide me forward. in my youngest years, he supported me in the things I was interested in, even those things that never actually worked out, such as the band. He gave me years of invaluable advice and tried to instill in me the morals and lessons he learned over his life. I regret it took so long for me to adopt those lessons and live by them. I regret that I was not able to see him or talk to him one last time, I chose the wrong year to move away out of state. I will forever hold onto to the wonderful memories we had as I was growing up. My fondest would be the times we shared together going to countless pro wrestling events in Philadelphia, and the one we flew down to in Florida where we stayed at the same hotel as the WWE guys. And that barely scratches the surface of the countless great memories I had with my father. As I got older, we had our share of arguments, and I made my share of mistakes and stupid decisions, but he was still always there for me. I know now he is in a much better place than I, and I take comfort in that and knowing that one day I will be able to see him and talk to him again. I never realized until recently how much I truly did look up to my dad, and I hope I can live up to his hopes for me as I know now he is looking down on me from his place by God's side.
Paula, we all know how much Phil will be missed by so the many people he touched -- especially those of us that enjoyed spending time with him every summer at the pool. God gave us all a good friend.
