Pete, I am going to miss you dearly. Rest In Peace my dear friend. To the family, my deepest sympathies. God's love, strength, and peace be with you. Love Always, Chenell & Johnathan Troup

Our family has many memories of Butler. It has been very difficult for us to wrap our minds around his passing. To be absent from the body, is to be present with our Lord. I spoke with Butler over the phone one day. He was overjoyed to have a grandson. He expressed how his life would never be the same and he said his life had been forever changed because of his grandson. That was something we could all relate to. Toy, Aquila & Micah remain strong and be encouraged. Love, Rita and Gary & girls ❤️

I remember seeing his smiling face for eighteen years while working at Go Durham Access. He was always pleasant to be around and talk to. Condolences from Val Hannah Murphy.

Dwight LaMonté Butler, go find my mom and you two hang out like we used to do. We have so many memories like you throwing allllll the letters I wrote you into the sea because there were just too many. Or my mom teaching you how to write your name in Japanese. We have talked and laughed and argued like best friends do. I appreciate every moment. My heart is broken but I find comfort in knowing you are in peace. Until we see each other again. Richele
