Thanks for posting this Gary. I often wondered what happened to Butch. All us High Street guys used to play ball down at Vets park before the JB Kelly school was even built. Butch lived right next to the park so always joined in. When chosing up sides Butch was always the first one chosen because he was so good. Having grown up with Butch and the Byrd family of Lockport I was quite surprised when the 60's hit. I had no idea what that was all about at the time.

Butch was a pretty good guy. Thanks for posting.
