To the family of Butch Lewis,
I am a friend of Butch from Duncan, OK. My name was Angie Mendenall at the time I met Butch. Butch was a wonderful friend to all that knew him. He was always smiling and all the girls loved to dance with him, including me. I haven't seen him in about fifteen years. I knew he was still working for Halliburton, but I always wondered what he was up to and how he was doing. We all missed him a lot when he moved to Houston. I got the information today that he passed away. I am very sad to hear this. I will miss him dearly.
Love,
Angie Jenkins
