BRAINTREE -
It is with the heaviest of hearts that the family of Kevin Francis Butler, 43, of Braintree and Quincy, are announcing his passing. Kevin died on Tuesday June 1, 2022. He was the beloved son of Frank Butler and Nora Butler. Kevin is also survived by his sister, Breda Kealey and her husband Darragh Kealey of Braintree and his brother Brendan Butler and his wife Courtney Butler of Bridgewater.
Kevin was adored by his nieces and nephew Niamh, Declan, Briella and Gianna. He was their biggest champion and always made them feel like the most special people in his world.
He worked side by side with his father for many years in the family construction business.
Kevin lived in the Connemara area of County Galway, Ireland when he was young and visited his family there as often as he could.
Another major part of Kevin’s life was the United States Army. He was a veteran and served in Arizona and Hawaii. He proudly worked with a variety of charities that served disabled veterans, such as the Salute Military Golf Association (SMGA). He built many strong friendships with those he met through his time in service, veteran’s groups and charitable efforts.
