Butch leaves a legacy in kindred spirit and service to others, including kindness. She taught me about gardening inspiring me to love the earth. She will be missed. Sending prayers for comfort of her lovely family. RIP my friend.

I'm so sorry to hear about Butch's passing. I fondly remember visits in the '70s by the Flynn Family to DC to visit Aunt Nell and Uncle Joe (Pariseau), as well as visiting my grandparents, June and Francis Costantino. Always fun times when our Southern side of the family came up!! Love to you all as you grieve her passing but also remember the wonderful times by celebrating her life. Hugs to you all, Kathy (Sharon Shaffer's daughter)
