"Butchie" Durelle Barton was born January 27th, 1942 in Artesia, New Mexico to Richard Aubrey the 2nd and Pauline Margarite Thomas. She joins them and her husband Jay Barton and her 2 siblings sister Diane and brother "Dickie" Richard Aubrey the 3rd. She also joins her son David.

She leaves behind her Daughter Marshawn Dyer, Her Step son Mike Barton, her step Daughter Cindy Barton Milburn, and Grandchildren Britney Dyer, Tyler and Elizabeth McCoy, her great Grandchildren Tianna, Taniyah, Terrance, Kemora.

She leaves behind a great team of friends and extended family. Butchie was a joy and a blessing to all of us. She is no longer in pain and may she rest in peace and may she continue to look over all of us.

For every life has a purpose to fill, a purpose which us humans can seldom understand. But she was a gift from heaven, whose purpose was to make this world understand what love, friendship, goodness, and humbleness was all about. Butchie belongs to heaven, we are all just visitors here on this earth and I know she is watching us from the Heaven above, bestowing her beautiful smile upon us. May her soul rest in peace.


I Love you Mom, and will miss you everyday til we meet again.
