It is with sadness that we announce Brian Thomas Butler passed away peacefully on the night of Saturday, June 11, 2022, after seeing a concert with his beloved wife, Amber, and extended family at the Gorge Amphitheater. After a six-year battle for his health, Brian would have found solace that his passing occurred in his sleep after a beautiful day with friends and family rather than at a hospital or while receiving medical care. We are heartbroken and feel a tremendous loss that Brian is no longer with us but we are comfortedby the circumstances of his passing. Brian was born on June 4, 1957, at Sacred Heart Hospital in Spokane to Barbara (Bobbie) Butler and Frank Butler, the fifth of their eight children. Brian was welcomed into an already busy household where he had many adventures with his brothers and sisters whilegrowing up on Spokane’s South Hill. Brian is remembered by his siblings as being a joyful child who smiled often and had a natural ability to succeed in whatever he did. Brian. . .
