Butch Hutson was one of the nicest, most fun, cutest boys I ever met! I met him when I was in 8th grade at Benjamin Syms. He was at least a year older and he had many crazy friends and those boys were always up to some capers. Dances at Willis, football games, Buckroe Beach summer days, Breakwater Bath House and the juke box. He grew up to be a very responsible man and retained his fun personality and remained a kind being all of his life. Everytime I would see him, in recent times, we would laugh and recall those days and friends of our past. He left us way too soon, I will always smile though every time I think of Butch and know that he is having a grand time reconnecting in Heaven, with so many of those that have gone on ahead. They are all rising to meet him at Heaven's Gate. Sail on dear friend.
