Butch retired from Holley Carburetor in 1993, after working there for over thirty years. He started on the assembly lines and with a lot of grit, hard work and determination, he progressed to the manager of the Quality Department. Since he wasn’t one to sit idle, Butch ran and was elected for the office of Edmonson County Clerk, and fervently served his county for over sixteen years.

He leaves to honor his memory-- his children, Amy Thornhill and her husband Bobby, and Nathan Carroll; his grandchildren, Michelle Merritt (Patrick) and Mason Thornhill all of Brownsville; great-grandchildren, Jackson and Stella Merritt, along with two nieces and a nephew.
