Condolences
"Sincere condolences to the Brajkovich family on the passing of John (Butch). Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you and may God grant you the strength to carry you through this most difficult time. May loving memories ease your loss and bring you comfort. Butch was a true friend and a good man. I remember many good times with the family when I was younger and especially most recently, when he was able to get to Cable Lake and do some fishing. Something I know he truly enjoyed. He shall never be forgotten and will remain in our hearts forever. With deepest sympathy, The Hoyt Family"
