Passing of FCA Board Member Bruce Butler

We are very sad to announce the passing of our current Secretary and former VP and President Bruce Butler on January 18, 2022. Bruce was an incredible board member for the FCA dedicating countless hours in service to our neighborhood, which he loved so much. https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/inquirer/name/bruce-butler-obituary?id=32371584
