One of the most memorable people who have touched my life is definitely Dr . Bob Butt . Firstly, we both grew up in Badger and during my growing up years, I heard many stories about the eldest son of Mr. Ben Butt. I remember as a little girl visiting his store with my mom and being treated to the sugary leftovers of candy in the jar. I heard from some of the townspeople about the son who had become a surgeon , but little did I know that he was to become an important figure in my life .
After high school, I went to Corner Brook to train as a nursing assistant. During one of my rotations in the ER , I was first in a position where I was able to speak with this icon , and to introduce myself as another Badgerite .To my surprise, he was actually interested. After graduating, I went to work in the operating room as an OR technician , and what a privilege it was for me to work directly in surgery with him . In the years that I was there, I learned much from him that I appreciate still .
As well as my time with Dr Butt professionally , I was honoured to spend years singing in our church choir at First United where he was a long time , highly respected member of same choir. There we had social get togethers ie , road trips to other parts of the island to perform , and there was always our choir dinners at West Haven Camp in Pasadena with a bon fire on the beach.
I’m sorry that he is but a memory now , however , I’m so very honoured that he is a solid part of my memories.
My husband , Wayne Payne , also a former Badgerite ,joins me in sending deepest sympathy to Susan and her family and to his extended family, Shirley and Sid.
Sylvia Rolfe, Bennett -Payne.

I remember Dr. Butt as a lover of the arts! I sang in choirs with him and performed with him in a few TNL productions. He was always up for an interesting conversation.
Condolences to the family

At a young age, Bob Butt & his wife, Connie were frequent visitors to play Bridge with my parents, Lloyd & Connie Pullin. They shared gardening & other interests. His sense of dry humor always stood out. He will be missed by many.

Dr. Butt, you will be sadly missed, and fondly remembered. It was a pleasure to know you as a surgeon and colleague. I was a patient of yours when I was a very young man, and later in life, I had the great privledge of seeing you in my role as a Nurse Practitioner. I also remember with fond memories, an "unpluged" production of "JCS" at the Arts and Culture Centre. I also remember the awesome overnight canoe trip on Indian River with other avid canoeists. Jamie Graham, Hue Jenkins, and the late Barry May, along with others, had a wonderful experience. Its difficult to say goodbye to people who made such a positive influence on my life. Your skilled practice and professionalism will always be remember by those who had the priviledge of knowing you. Farewell, Bob, and thank-you for your leadership and inspiration. Gary

To the Butt family and his extended family.
Sincere condolences on the death of a truly great surgeon. I had the pleasure of working with him for many years. He could strike fear in any nurses heart if you appeared incompetent in any way. If you had to call him about a patient, never do it if you didn’t have all your ducks in a row. He worked tirelessly day and night. Ready to tackle anything to save a life. In todays world, a lot of his patients would have been transferred to a larger facility. Rest easy Dr. Butt. Your legacy will live on for eternity.
