That beautiful smile will never be forgotten. I love u Melissa.
I remember when we were meeting up at the house and we were both late. Turned out.. we both got pulled over at the exact same time. Oh how we laughed. I love you!
I just learned of Melissa’s passing and my heart goes out to her family. Melissa cared for my husband at Cerenety Care Center and she was so gentle and compassionate with him. He has since passed away also but I truly will cherish the memories I have of Melissa. Her bright smile will be missed. My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you…

Melissa’s smile was very inspirational and she will be missed. Her insight into problems I have have helped me and I will always remember her.
I had the pleasure of attending nursing school with Melissa. Although I did not have the opportunity to get to know her very well as our paths didn’t often cross, she always impressed me with her good nature, curiosity and interest in learning, and of course her lovely smile. My sincere condolences go out to her family and friends.

Melissa, You were one of my favorite PCA’s to work with. You had an infectious smile and a beautiful soul. You always had such a great attitude about work and I trusted my patients in your hands. The world lost an amazing woman when we lost you and I will forever miss you.
Melissa, you were so sweet and bubbly when we worked together so many years ago. I remember thinking how beautiful you were. Beautiful on the inside and out.

Dearest Missy im gonna miss your smile and squeezy hugs when you walk into the room! Love and Miss you lots till we meet again RIP your so precous! Uncle Jerry! :
Melissa and I had a “buddy system” in our third semester of the Nursing Program. We encouraged one another and supported each other when we felt we just couldn’t hold on any longer. She was my rock and my strength that got me through and I will never forget her. I will miss her dearly!
I only got the chance of meeting you once. You’re beautiful and your smile is contagious. I only wish I could’ve had the chance to become friends with you and study the Bible with you. I saw the deep love and care all your family had for you, there is no doubt you will be missed tremendously. Much love, my condolences.
Our hearts go out to the entire Butler family at this difficult and unimaginable time. Please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers, today and forever.
she was so excited to get through nursing school and when she got the job at Regions.
Our hearts are broken. We will miss that smile when you enter the room. I wish that you only knew how much you were loved by everyone. I will look for the brightest star in the sky and know you are happy.
A few days ago I was at a loss of words, but now I have something to say. I will never forget your bright eyes and eager to learn when I trained you into the department of Regions. As time went on we shared our work, and sensitive life conversations, which I will carry with me in confidence that I was able to have those moments with you. As many may ask WHY? The only true person has that answer and he has you next to his side as a true Angel! I will always think of you, and miss you truley,peace be with you! God bless you Melissa! Prayers and thoughts with your Family.

Dear Lenny & Family, So young, so vibrant, so beautiful, so soon. When Troy was little and his greatgrandma died he asked if she was going to help god make the sun shine. I’d like to think that’s what Missy will be doing, helping god make the sun shine, as she did throughout her life with her bright shining smile and personality. Know that we are praying for your comfort throughout these upcoming days, and into future. We are so sorry for your loss Lenny & all that dearly loved her. Love, DeAnn – Troy & Trent
Aunt Maxine and Paula and family, my heart is breaking for your loss. Sending love, hugs and prayers. She was so beautiful.
Paula and all of your family, I am so sad inside to hear about Melissa. I have a daughter in her 20’s and cannot imagine how you feel. I believe that Melissa suffered from a terminal illness that no one could cure, no matter how hard you tried. You are a great mother and my heart aches for you. Please let me know if there is anything I can do,
Melissa i will remember u first as one of my best friends since the 7th grade. U were so fun and full of life and made people laugh and smile where ever u went. U were so kind and caring its no suprise that u had so many friends. I will also remember u as one of the loves of my life. I will never find someone quite as special as u. We went through alot of ups and downs together but u were always there for me no matter what. No one will ever know the bond we shared or the things we went through together. Words cant express how much im going to miss u. Im so lucky that i got to experience that friendship and unconditional love. U will always have a piece of my heart that no one can replace. I will never forget u. I love u forever and always. Goodbye my love.
Melissa, I wish we had taken the time to know each other earlier than we did. Our chats about our similar school situations were therapeutic. It was wonderful to have someone who understood to talk with. You will be greatly missed at work. EVERYONE always commented on your bubbly personality and bright smile. You really did brighten things up.
Melissa, I just recently met you and I am so sad I won’t see your bright smile anymore at work. You were so caring with the patients, they loved you. You had such a bubbly personality. You will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with your family, you left us too soon.
Dear Melissa’s family, I am so very sorry for your loss. I know how much you loved her and tried to help in so many ways and times. Our whole family loved her too, and will cherish our memories and times with her. She would pop in and out of our lives and we will miss her beautiful smile and happy times she could bring. You are all in our thoughts and prayers and have our deepest sympathy. Bonnie Monson & family,
You brightened every room you walked into Missy. I am proud of you for all you accomplished these past few years and for all the lives you touched. We miss you and love you always.
Melissa you were a one of a kind person. Have many memories that I will treasure with you. Its so unfortunate that you left all your friends and family at such a early age. Will always remember the famous “Butler raps.” You are now at peace but will never be forgotten. R.I.P. Melissa Butler….you will be greatly missed.
Dear Melissa, My heart cries…to know a small portion of your struggles you were always the trooper through it all! I will miss your bubbly self and smiles, and our small chats by the pool! I picture you now in beautiful white dress and sparkled high heels, walking through Heaven free from all your pain! God will take good care of you baby girl! My sincere condolances and heart felt prayers to First and For-most, Paula
Melissa, I don’t even know what to say! We had some wonderful times together at work (Cerenity Care Center) and outside of work. I remember going to Marketfest during break because we had to have Dippin’ Dots, or just walking around the block to enjoy the weather. You were a wonderful friend and had the most amazing smile that could brighten anyone’s day! You will be missed so much by so many! God has gained a beautiful angel
I remember a person who had a huge heart and would help anybody in need. You were special Melissa and I know you are in heaven helping somebody right now. You would be the one to tell God he needed some help to if you thought he did. You will be greatly missed butt butt.
Melissa! I don’t have one memory but I just know that all my memories with you were fun times and goofy! You always brightened my day and we were both there for each other thru some good times and bad! I love you Melissa!! You are missed by so many but we know your sufferings are over!!!!
I have only a few memories of melissa back from high school but they were very good ones. Sucah a beautiful women lost too soon. All my thoughts prayers and hugs go to the butler family in such a difficult time!
Melissa I remember the first time you showed me the Campbell Soup face. It had to be the funniest thing I had ever seen! I remember literally crying of laughter and having you do it every time you came you came by the house. You were very special and I know you’ll be missed.
Melissa I picked you up at optimas beach you were 15 years old riding your bmx and it was raining you gladly excepted the invitation with the bright shining smile you’ve worn EVERYTIME I’ve seen you since!! I will never forget you Melissa! Your at peace and in no pain!!! I promise I will look for you when its my time!!!!
The world is missing out on a truly amazing woman. I will always remember the good times we had and what a cheery beautiful person she was. I love you Melissa, and thank you for the memories.
Melissa was one of those “larger-than life” people who we are blessed with from time to time. They come into our lives and bring with them a very special joy and love that is unique and that encompasses all of us around them. Melissa, I know that you are now at peace, as God has taken you to a place where there is no sorrow. You are greatly missed. May God help your friends and family through this indescribable grief.
I remember you, jenny, matt, and myself driving around one night listening to music and you rapping and knowing the words to every song we played. I couldn’t believe someone who is so beautiful have so many talents lol. Going to miss you lighting up rooms with that amazing smile and personality. MISS YOU ALWAYS! Love ya girl
I love how she would light the room up with her smile and laughter. She was a very caring woman, and you could feel her warmth shining out when you were near her, and especially around the residents she cared for. We miss you, Melissa! (your friends at Cerenity WBL)
My heart is just breaking for all of you. I so wish there was something I could say or do…but I know there are no words. Know you are all in my thoughts and prayers. She was an amazing girl ~ I am truly grateful for the time we spent together. God Bless! Margie
