Great farewell Butcher family, hard day for you all. Well done to the 3 of you for getting your story across about your dad. Callum, message from John: he said you should of challenged your father in golf. John said your dad tried his best to but him, but your dad always came 2nd. John said even though he wasn't able to attend Junior nationals, he loved it when the parents had to imitate the juniors skit on show & tell night with only 1 nights practice. Grant always encouraged John to have ago and for that he is very grateful to Grant for making him have ago. Forever memories, thank you so much
