RIP Mr Cole
The Final Salute“Brothers in Arms”, Military men and women down through the centuries, have traditionally exchanged “Hand Salutes” as a sign of recognition and as a way to render courtesy and respect one to another. This “Hand Salute” is the last that we shall render to Leslie Gerald (Charles) Butler our “Brother-in-Arms”. To his family it symbolizes the love and respect that we have for Charles. And to Charles it is rendered as a symbol of honor and gratitude to thank him for the devoted and selfless service he rendered to his country during the Korean War while serving in the U.S. Air Force. Charles, we commend you for your honorable service. You are a true patriot, who served with honor and distinction. You upheld the finest qualities of an American patriot warrior: courage, commitment, Generosity, sacrifice, love and devotion to family and country. You were a true friend. We bid you a sad farewell. You will be dearly missed from among our ranks. Be at Ease. Rest in Peace.On behalf of the 1,261 military veteran Legionnaires of Lowe-McFarlane Post 14 of the American Legion and the 233 veterans of VFW Post 2238 in Shreveport, Louisiana, we extend our sympathies and our condolences to Charles' family and loved ones.Bobby L.

Love you Daddy.
So sorry to hear about Charles. I was just looking at the obits and unbelievably I recognized Charles' picture. It's been years since I've seen any of y'all . Mom and Dad (Lois and Quinton) thought the world of all of you all. Again, so sorry for your loss.
You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Monette and family,Please accept my deepest sympathy. I will miss my cousin Charles but will always remember him for being fun loving and interested in all that is family. Charles and James Lee came to Omaha often to see Aunt Jessie (my mother) and always showed us a good time and made us feel that although we are far away from our family, we are still loved and included in theirs.Love to Margie, Ruth, Ada Lou and James Lee too. Know that I am thinking of you all and sending prayers to help you get through this difficult time.Love and miss you all,cousin Pam
