Butch was born on January 31, 1941, in Indianapolis, Indiana, “he got to Texas as fast as he could”. His parents were Bob and Ellen Graphman (Nanny and Papa). He is survived by his wife Wanda Sue and their two sons Craig and his wife Clare, Mark and his wife Wendy. Butch had four Grand Children, Melissa and husband Robert, Bobby and wife Kristy, Aric and wife Morgan and Ellie. He also had three Great Grandchildren, Caden, Ethan and Austin. Butch was a Master Mason and a member of the Alzafar Shrine Temple.
Butch retired from the Federal Aviation Administration in 2006. After which he enjoyed travel, flying and boating. And yes, even scuba diving, which he started at age 74. To say my Dad was adventurous would be an understatement. He was always up for a challenge and always ready to lend a hand.
Butch will have graveside services at Cashner Funeral Home, in the Garden Park Cemetery, Conroe, Texas. Friday November 17th at 12:30pm. Dad insisted on casual dress.
