Zachary Wayne Butler, age 40, of Evansville, IN, left us on Friday, July 22, 2022. He was born February 5, 1982, at St. Mary’s Hospital to Andy Lee Butler and Cynthia (Thompson) Butler. Zachary graduated from Harrison High School in 2001. He worked for a time at CRF, before receiving disability.
Zachary enjoyed working on cars and was not afraid to take on a challenge. He enjoyed music and later had become very good at writing original rap verses. Though he battled personal demons, Zachary lived a full life in his short time. He cared about the underdog and would always help a friend in need which was a trait he learned from his father. Zachary’s one regret was time missed with his family.
Zachary is survived by his children; daughter, Khyli Butler; son, Tyler Butler; his loving mother, Cynthia Butler; brother Keary Lee Butler (Hana); nieces, Alessandra, Lana and Gabrielle Butler; and many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Zachary is preceded in death by his father, Andy Butler; grandparents, Otis Butler, Goldie Butler-Haire, Gene Haire, Morris Thompson and Erma Thompson; uncle Morris Gene Thompson; aunt, Naomi Thompson; and cousins, Cheri, Jamie and Jennifer Thompson.
