Earl E. Butson, of St. Charles, Missouri, passed away on Friday, April 7, 2017, at the age of 82. Beloved husband of Laraine Butson; cherished son of the late Earl L. and Frances Butson; devoted father of Frances (John) Miramonti, Deborah Butson, and Susan Tucker; loving grandfather of Michael, Amelia, Elizabeth, Rachel, and Sean; and dear brother of Marvin Butson, Billy Butson, Freddy Butson, and the late Jerry Butson.
Earl enjoyed trout fishing and volunteering at the FAST Food Pantry. He collected model cars, pocket watches, and enjoyed baking banana bread in his spare time. Most of all Earl loved his family, especially caring for his "babies" grandchildren. He was a dedicated and hard worker that had a passion to provide the very best for his family. Earl was deeply loved, and will be missed by all who knew him.
