What can I say about one of the best old soles from our generation. Butch was ,if you were lucky, to have as a friend . And if you were he never forgott you and was there for you with a smile or a joke, of course. A family man thru and thru. Bordentown city will forever miss one of the good ones. God Bless

I am so sorry to see another of the original 3RD Ward gang and Bordentown's finest leave us. We had a lot of fun as kids and those memories will always be with us.

There aren’t enough words to express what a wonderful man Butch was. I will never forget how he and Fran both made me immediately feel like family at the 1st of many amazing Christmas Eves in their home, over 30 years ago. And that is exactly what they have been ever since. Family.
Jay and I are both so incredibly sorry for your tremendous loss, and we send our love to Fran and the entire Miller family. We love you all.

I would have to write a book, including hunting stories, Eddies in Fieldsboroto etc. to say what great times we had and what a wonderful friend you have been! I remember the conversations we had on Christmas Eve's that went on untill morning. Lol You will always be remembered as a great family man, a great citizen and a great friend! RIP
