Marcus “Marc” Paul Butler, 52, of Bladenboro passed away on Wednesday, December 16, 2020. He was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Arthur and Vady Butler and maternal grandparents, Joe and Mary Starnes. Left to cherish his memory are his parents, Everette Butler and Peggy Starnes Butler of Bladenboro, the mother of his children, Laura Butler of Fayetteville, one son, Joseph Butler of Fayetteville, two daughters, Morgan Butler and Mary Butler, both of Fayetteville, one brother, Bradley Butler (Debbie) of Bladenboro, one sister, Sharon Baxley (Rodney) of Bladenboro, three granddaughters, Alina Lewis, Madisyn Butler, and Emersyn Butler, one grandson, Landon Emanuel and a special friend, Christi Mills.

Marc was a loving and generous person. He cherished his family very much. Marc enjoyed hunting and fishing. He also enjoyed coaching ball, especially to kids who did not make the cut. He took his team to Allstars in North Carolina and Arizona where they won the championship. Marc was a gifted and talented welder by trade and has taught many others how to weld over the years. A huge fan of the Miami Dolphins, he considered them the best team whether it was a winning season or not. His love of life and compassionate heart will eternally be remembered in the hearts of all who knew him.

A graveside service will be held on Sunday, December 20, 2020 at 2:00 pm at Galeed Baptist Church Cemetery in Bladenboro with the Rev. Brett Young, Rev. Warren Hill, and Rev. Daren Andrews officiating. All attendees are asked to wear masks and practice social distancing.
