Obituary of Mark Anthony Butler

Mark Anthony Butler [also lovingly known as Spatacus to his closest friends] was born to Cornel Peter Butler and Louvaine Astaphan in Roseau, Dominica, on October 25, 1969; Mark spent his first nineteen years in Dominica and then migrated to Maryland, USA. Mark met the love of his life of twenty years, his wife Debbie; they were married for seventeen years, yet, he would call her at least ten times a day just to crack a joke and to tell her he loved her, a ritual he kept to his last day, he never got tired of hearing her voice. Mark's prime possessions were his children, Jovan, London, and Bianca; he loved and adored them. All who knew Mark loved Mark, and it showed when the news of his sudden death quickly spread among family and friends. The calls, the shock, the tears.

Mark is survived by his wife, Debbie, and his children, Jovan Butler, London Butler, and Bianca Butler. Father; Cornel Butler, Mother; Louvaine Astaphan.
