Barbara M. Butler, age 92, of Henderson, KY, passed away on February 20, 2022 at Colonial Assisted Living in Henderson, KY. Barbara was a lifelong member of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church and had a wonderful church family. Their love and care were immeasurable. She retired from Accuride Corporation.

The family would like to thank all the wonderful staff at Colonial for their extra care in these last few weeks. Colonial had been her home for the past 8 years and the staff were family too. Barbara was preceded in death by her parents John Frederick Mahler and Mildred M. Brown, first husband Randy Shiver, second husband Eugene C. Butler, and her siblings, Patricia Black, John Mahler, and Charles Mahler. She is survived by her son Larry Shiver (Christa) of Henderson, KY; daughter Becky Shiver Reaves (Fred) of Hazel, KY; 4 grandchildren who were her greatest joys: Amber Claybrook, Erica Shiver Haynes, Sara Reaves Watkins, and Chris Reaves; 5 great-grandchildren; and nieces and nephews.
