In Memory

IN LOVING MEMORY OF
EDWARD "BUTCHY" WHITE


Of National Park & West Deptford
April 3, 2011
Aged 67 years

Past Commodore of N.P.B.C. 1997 & 1998

A one of a kind "all around great guy"; Butchy was always the life of the party and there for anyone who needed anything.  His friendly, outgoing ways; big smile and hearty laugh helped make him many friends.  Butchy was a familiar face at the Army-Navy Garrison & National Park Boat Club.  During the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis, he was serving in the US Navy aboard the USS McCaffrey.  Prior to his retirement in 1996 as Detective Sergeant, Butchy served with the West Deptford Police Department for 25 years.  After retirement, he started his own successful concrete business.  Spending time with his family-especially his grandchildren- restoring his motorcycle, fishing and raising a glass of Old Granddad to toast a special occasion, were just a few things that were important to him.



IN LOVING MEMORY OF
QUILA MACDONALD
 
 
 
R.I.P.  2/24/2011
 
God saw that you were getting tired
and a cure was not to be...
So he put his arms around you
and whispered, "Come with Me."
 
With aching hearts,
we watched you suffer
and saw you fade away.
Although we loved you dearly,
we could not help you stay.
 
A Loving Heart stopped beating,
A special friend put to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the very best.

 Jen passed away on January 11, 2011 at the age of 63.  Jen had suffered with COPD over the last several years and was unable to come to the club as often.  She was a avid Nascar fan.  Her loving husband Jim (also a club memebr) was constantly at her side. She was surrounded by her family and friends. She will be sadly missed.  You always knew where you stood with Jen...she pulled no punches.  The family will hold a memorial service in the spring at the club.

He also left behind a sister MaryAnn and several grandchildren.  John served our club several times as Commodore as well as Vice Commodore. He was well known up and down the Delaware at the various DRYL boating/yacht clubs.   He could always be seen in his truck with his constant companion dogs and when it come the St. Patty's Day you knew you would be serenaded with "O Danny Bioy" or some other Irish tunes.  He loved our club and was proud to represent us anywhere.
