Send your well wishes to ‘Butch’ through CaringBridge

Friends and colleagues asked that we share the news with LOG readers that Butch Reimer, the Phoenix Nordic Ski coach, is battling leukemia. Reimer and his family welcome well wishes through the CaringBridge website where Reimer’s wife, Jill, is keeping friends and family updated on his daily progress. In spring, Reimer was named the Central Collegiate Ski Association’s Male Coach of the Year. This fall he began his fifth season in his second stint as ski coach at UW-Green Bay. He also served as the Phoenix softball coach for a time. Last year was among the most successful of many great seasons for the Phoenix ski team. Read more about Reimer’s toughest challenge to date, and encourage him through a journal posting, if you’d like, at www.caringbridge.org/visit/butchreimer.
