| About | Gary S. Buttweiler, 47, was born January 1, 1964, in Womack Army Hospital in Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Gary traveled to many states, and lived in NC, MI, MN and NM. He has also traveled to Europe. He especially loved Rome, London and Paris, and taking the train from Paris to London through the tunnel. Gary was good at painting landscapes and his talent grew with the years, but he started painting abstracts during the last years of his life. He remained an adept Audiophile, and was repairing tuners while still in High School. He taught himself Bass guitar and was in a St. Cloud band for short while in the 1980's. He loved classic rock throughout his life. Gary was the oldest of his siblings and is survived by his brother Mark who lives in Jerusalem, Israel, sisters Sharon of St. Cloud, MN, and Denise Sesler of Allen, TX. He is also survived by his loving parents Lloyd and Edith of Los Lunas, NM, many nephews, nieces, cousins, aunts and uncles scattered across the country and world. We know that after all he has been through, and all of the people he has touched, that he is with our maker in Heaven. We can almost see his awesome smile as he looks upon us... laughing his ass off. We'll miss him. |
