My father was a fireman and worked with Mr Butz. We went to St Ann’s church. Mrs Butz and my mother were good friends. They had a great family. I am very sorry for your loss. I had a crush on Angela in grade school.

I want to acknowledge the friendship and help Dean gave me some 50 years ago while he and I were working at Tippecanoe Memory Gardens. And if his fellow fireman, Dick Hogan, were alive he would be acknowledging that friendship also--Doug Paprocki.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
