Butterfield, Gerald Curtis (Skip)
Born April 14, 1940, Skip passed away August 8, 2010 after his brave fight with cancer. He was with his 2 sons Craig and Scott, and his daughter-in-law Elise at the time of his passing. His faithful dog JR was also at his side; he was surrounded by love, as he left this world. A father, husband, avid golfer and industry pioneer, Skip will be sorely missed.
We will be holding a celebration of life ceremony in the next couple of weeks. Please call Craig at 250-920-8770 for information and directions. Please do not send flowers, but rather make a donation to the Canadian Cancer Society or your favourite charity in Skip’s name. Condolences may be offered to the family at www.mccallbros.com.

Brent Beyak Craig – I am sharing your loss of Skip. He was a valiant man, and I really enjoyed our time when we talked. Keep a stiff upper lip man, I bet that is how he would have played it. Let me know if I can help. Brent
