Veronica's wonderful and generous life began in Houston, Texas on July 27, 1960. She was the daughter of Bill Ortiz and Delores Nunez. She grew up in Houston and was a graduate of Irvington Christian Academy. She graduated from LaTourneau University in 1998, with a Bachelor of Science degree. In her professional career she excelled in many positions with the U.S. Postal Service, including Manager of Emergency preparedness for the five state area of Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana.
She married J.D. Butler in 1995, and they moved to Aledo and shared a happy life together. After an early retirement in 2009, she enjoyed traveling with J.D. to numerous destinations throughout the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Caribbean and Europe.
Veronica was a loved and cherished member of the Butler family and was the stepmother to Autumn Peterson and Lex Butler; and a godmother to Brook Butler, Axel Peterson and Sebastian Peterson. She generously shared her talents, hospitality, sincerity and compassion to all her family and friends. She was also the type of person to give comfort to strangers in time of need. Throughout her medical treatments she made friends with all the new patients and prayed for them in her daily prayers.
She was a devoted member of the United Pentecostal Church and practiced her unwavering faith at Life City Church in Weatherford, Texas. Pastor Tim Dunn, along with the entire church congregation, provided her with the comfort and support needed during her fight with cancer. Her walk with the Lord was a true blessing in her life and her strong faith and religious commitment was an inspiration to those who knew her.
Veronica will be missed by all; however, she leaves us with wonderful memories, and her love will remain in our hearts for years and years to come. We were truly blessed having her in our lives.
