I am Butch’s daughter. My Dad and his brother Rickey started West Boats I believe off the top of my head in 1987. My Dad Continued the business after Rickey passed. This was a family owned business - Beth, my Dads wife at the time did work there to help during the marriage. She no longer affiliated with West Boats when she decided to end the marriage. At that time my Dad was had been diagnosed with cancer. He kept the business open a short time but his Illness was to much.
The company was closed by the family and building sold.
My dad has a ten year battle with cancer. Several cancers he battled and won. Dad was a marine and was exposed to agent orange. He was a hell of a fighter.
He lost his battle yesterday. 07/19/2020. I came across this searching my Dads name. I wanted to make sure the customers and friends who loved him knew what happened.
Once Dad closed the shop he did distance himself from friends because it was how he felt he could deal with his illness.
Your prayers are appreciated. Thank you all for your kind words above. I love hearing stories about him. He was and will always be my hero.
