It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Pieter Ormonde Gordon Butler (Ottawa, Ontario), who passed away on December 12, 2021, at the age of 98, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Pieter Ormonde Gordon Butler to pay them a last tribute.

He was loved and cherished by many people including: his parents, Sidney Butler and Laura Turner; his siblings, Joan (Viedge), Ruth (Hoogenhout) and Sidney Butler; his friends, Jane McIntosh and Jennifer Ring; his former wife Elizabeth Butler; his wife Marybelle Mitchell; his sons, Miles Butler, Patrick and Rob; his close friends, Janet and Beth; his daughter-in-law Terri Wylie; his grandchildren, Jennifer (Michel), Michael (Chelsea), Samantha (Bilal), Andrew (Christina), Elizabeth (Todd) and Bronwen (Rob); his great grandchildren, Thomson, Eira, Maddie, Brooks, Nettie, Layla, Oakley, Ella and Mabel; his stepsons, James and Stephen (Jennifer); his nieces and nephews, Thorne, Laura, Colin, Ruth, Kristin, Conrad, Kathy, Linda and Meesie; and also, Margot and Anna.

A passerby who happened to work for CBC came to his aid; she asked him how he was doing during COVID; his thoughtful response was on the Ottawa morning show the next day.
