friendship. From friends to the love of each other's lives, Clyde and Diana were wed on September 8th, 1969. Together they created a loving home that provided for four children, grandchildren, and numerous nieces & nephews.

He is survived by his children Kim M. Butler-Fleming (George Fleming), Clyde D. Butler II, and Kiara Diana M. Butler, and Daniel K. Carroll, grandchildren, Ian "Rocky" Butler (Jennifer Perez-Butler) Ibn J. Butler, great grandchild, Averie E. Butler, his brother, Donald Butler, and a village of nieces, nephews, and friends that love and will miss him deeply.

Clyde will receive his Heavenly welcoming from his wife, Diana V. Butler, daughter Karen M. Butler, his aunt, Helen L. Butler, his parents, Mabel Holloway- Butler & Ernest Butler, and his

brother Alvin Butler.

As a man of service, Clyde made his legacy his family. He passed down his love, his honor and his duty to family all that he raised.

May he live on through us.
