Edward Calvin Butler

Edward Calvin Butler, 77, went home to be with Jesus on Monday, April 9, 2012.

Calvin was born on June 3, 1934 in Turner County, Georgia. He was a member of Parkway Assembly of God Church in Macon, Georgia. With pride and honor, Calvin served in the United States Navy, serving during the Korean conflict. After twenty four years of dedicated service, he retired from Merico, Inc. / Colonial Baking Company where he was a Sales Manager. He enjoyed spending time with his family, making picture frames, remodeling houses and reading his Bible. He loved spending time with each of his grandchildren, teaching them about things they need to know to make it in the world that he so briskly left behind. His parents, John and Maureen Butler, four sisters and two brothers, all preceded him in death.
