He will be missed greatly. Always funny and cracking jokes. Never a dull moment when he was around. He was a great man and I enjoyed spending time with him.
I remember running around trying to annoy Grandpa Olsen with my cousins; hoping he’d chase us. If you played your cards right he’d try to get you with his cane. We’d laugh and run away of course; all in good fun. That man was truly one of a kind.
There are few people that you meet in life that make a big impact on many! Butter was one of them! He could say and do things nobody else could ever match! He’s been like a Father to My husband John Holtman and to many others that came into his life! My favorite Quote of his and i use it all the time then explain where i got it from “Shit and 2 are 8 and 4 is 12! lmfao I had the honor of cleaning for this family for 11 years and enjoyed every minute of it! You will be so missed Butter! Save us a good spot in heaven! Nancy Holtman!
My thoughts and prayers are with Kay and your whole family durings this difficult time.
I understand. Celebrate those times and memoreis shared with him. What a blessing.
