Orvin Buttars Obituary (1931

Orvin Allen Buttars with sound mind, passed away peacefully in his sleep Friday, September 20, 2019. Born to Mary Harriet Bowles Buttars and Gover Buttars on January 25, 1931 in Rupert, Idaho. He married Nadine Weedop, September 8, 1954. They recently celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary. He was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served in many callings but he often said, one of his favorites was teaching the Aaronic Priesthood. That was the counselor in him. Orvin and Nadine moved with five children in tow to Tooele, Utah and made their home here, the final number six was born here in Tooele. Orvin is preceded in death by his parents, and all six brothers; Ervin, Milton, Gordon, Nolan, Ralph, and Dean, along with his grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. There was one special grandson, Kendall Allen Mogensen. He is survived by his wife, Nadine Weedop Buttars, children; Theresa (Dave) Aagard, Sharla (Ralph) Mogensen, LaPrele Husted, Nellisa (Albert) Piche, Gaylon Buttars, Brian Buttars. We as a family would like to thank the staff of Harmony Home Health & Hospice who aided in the care of Orvin for over a year. He became fond of one CNA, Barbara McFarland. We will miss hearing her call him “Bossman” or “Tootz.” This is a quote I feel our dad would say; “My greatest treasure is my family. We may not be perfect, and our tree has a few nuts, but I love them with all my heart.” A Viewing is scheduled for Friday, September 27, 2019, 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. at Tate Mortuary 110 South Main Street in Tooele, Utah.
