  6. My deepest sympathy and condolences to your family and to all those touched by his passing.
    I was fortunate enough to have had several conversations with Homer while visiting at John and Gigi’s. He always had an amusing and insightful take on any subject we might light upon. Surely his good humor and understanding was informed by all the many and varied experiences he had encountered in a life well-lived. I will always be grateful for those times.

    • I am so sorry but I was not aware of Butsy’s passing away. My biggest remembrance of him and Jeanette were how nice they were during my visits to their home. In addtion my first thought revolves around the time of their marriage I can still see how happy they both were. Those were great times. Many years have passed since.
      My brother who was close to them always said how happy they were together.I am sure you will be missed by many.
