It is with much sadness that Fred Davies advises us of the death last month on the 17th May 2018 of William Butterfield, aged 96, CVA Founder Member and veteran of 44RM Commando. Our sincere condolences to all his family and friends.

The following is taken from an online obituary to him as is the photo below:

William 'Bill' Butterfield, 96 of Cottonwood, passed away peacefully at his home on his birthday, May 17, 2018. He was pre-deceased by his wife Vera. He is survived by his daughter Margaret 'Maggie' of Cottonwood; his loving god-daughter Nadia; nephews, nieces and cousins in the UK. Bill was born in Keighley, Yorkshire, UK and moved with his wife to the USA in 1967. Cottonwood became their home in 1988.

God and the Soldier, all men adore, In time of danger and not before.
When the danger is passed and all things righted, God is forgotten, and the Soldier slighted.
