It is with great sadness to announce the passing of Adam Butt Sr. (class of 1968) after a 10 month courageous fight against cancer at the age of 60. Adam was born on the 4th of May, 1950 and left us on the 11th of November, 2010 at 10:22pm.
Adam was a stellar athlete, amusing classmate and a “rascal” at DBS. Adam had many roles in his life time. He was a good son, a caring brother, a trusted friend, a hard worker, a loving husband, a brilliant father and the undisputed gold medalist of occasional temper tantrum.
His role may have changed during the different stages of his life, but the characteristics that define who he was remained unchanged. He was a man with unquestionable work ethnics and integrity. His charisma, warmth and sense of humor have enriched the lives of those who were privileged to have known him. His determination, competitiveness, resilience, and amazing display of “balls” were clearly demonstrated in his final battle with a notorious disease. These are the characteristics that defined this special man that we all know as Adam Butt Sr. No doubt his classmates, friends, associates, relatives and family will cherish his legacy and always remember him in his light.
He is survived by his wife, Helen, and son, Adam Jr.
