Butch was such a kind man, it was my pleasure to know him and Cathy. To know they are both with Jesus and out of pain is a blessing, but they are both missed very much.
Mr.”E”, you were a wonderful math teacher and you will be missed.

I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Ebersohl at Miller Intermediate School! He was a very well educated and compassionate man! He would share stories of his prior work experience, family, & speak so very lovingly of his beloved wife, Cathy! Mr. Ebersohl was kind enough to offer his assistance in a business venture of mine! He believed in my quest to become an entrepreneur & was willing to help see it through! Our last mode of communication was via email and he spoke about the cancer returning and the treatment he was to receive…still vowing to work on my project! Mr. Ebersohl was a man of great integrity & virtue! Rest in Peace!To the family: Heartfelt condolences, peace and comfort, thoughts and prayers are sent your way! May God Bless and Keep you all!!
