The Final Salute

“Brothers in Arms”, Military men and women down through the centuries, have traditionally exchanged “Hand Salutes” as a sign of recognition and as a way to render courtesy and respect one to another. 

This “Hand Salute” is the last that we shall render to Ronald Wayne Butler our “Brother-in-Arms”.   To his family it symbolizes the love and respect that we have for Ron.   And to Ron it is rendered as a symbol of honor and gratitude to thank him for the devoted and selfless service he rendered to his country during the Korean War while serving in the U.S. Air Force.  Ron, we bid you a sad farewell.  You will be dearly missed from among our ranks.  Be at Ease.  Rest in Peace.
 
On behalf of the 1,307 members of Lowe-McFarlane Post 14 of the American Legion,  I extend our sympathies and our condolences to Ron’s family and loved ones.

Dennis Engdahl, Commander, American Legion Post 14
