Buttenschon stressed that it’s vital that everyone continues to take the pandemic seriously and follow CDC, state and public health guidelines.
“I am grateful for the outpouring of support that my family and I have received from the public." said Buttenschon. “Additionally, I hope all will join me in saying a prayer for those we have lost to this terrible disease.
