Robert C. "Butch" Graham

As the sun rose in Baton Rouge, on February 10, 2015 at Butterfly Wing Robert C. “Butch” Graham was called home to meet his maker. He resided in Baton Rouge, La. for 40 years before moving to his beloved Outback Plantation. He was born on January 20, 1945 and attended school in Hattiesburg, MS. where he met and married Dianne. They moved to Baton Rouge and together they formed their own business, Rebel Heating and Air-conditioning and with a lot of hard work, this was made into a very successful venture. Many longtime friends were made, both business and personal. He and Dianne had a passion for fishing, hunting, and their greatest joy of all was spending time with their family and friends, as well as his “dog Missy”. Butch was always busy finding something to do for himself and others. Butch is survived by his daughter, Traci Petty and husband Gary; son, Todd Graham and wife Selena; grandchildren, Ty and Clay Petty and Trey Graham; step grandson, Chris Petty; and sister, Susan Patterson and husband David. He is preceded in death by his beloved wife of 38 years, Dianne Graham; parents, R.C. Graham and Maysie Graham; and brother, Don Graham. His grandchildren were the light of his life and he was their favorite side kick whether it was hunting, fishing, or sports.
