Firstly I would like to express my deepest sorrow to all the Butler and extended families on Uncle Fred's passing, he will be certainly missed by so many!!! I always called him Uncle Fred, even though there was no real relation, well maybe somewhere down the line there could be a connection??! I can remember so many times at Mom's when Uncle Fred would come to visit, and one time in particular, Dad was making pallets at the time in the basement and Robin would come down as well to help us put wood into the basement through the window, and I would stand right up above in Donna's bedroom window and yell out below, "Uncle Fred" and he would look up and right down over his head went a full glass of water. That started the war!!! One time he even got me on my way to work with the water hose and I had to go back in and get changed, but that was the fun of it, the war was on!! Of course getting married and moving away from home, I didn't get to see Uncle Fred as much anymore, but everytime we would meet, I would give him a big kiss and hug, wherever that may be and he would still say that he owed me one. I guess he will still owe me that dowsing when we meet again someday!! I will miss our waterfights!!! Till we meet again........
