With great sorrow, the band (Port Authority Police Dept. Pipes and Drums) is pained to announce the passing of charter member and long time Pipe Major, PO Steve Butterbrodt (Ret.). Steve was a stalwart in the piping community for many years and instructed many inspiring pipers and bands throughout the area. He was dedicated to the men and women of the PAPD as a fierce Union Delegate and led the band in honoring those lost after 9/11 at countless funerals then and years later. No details are available at this time. Please keep his family in your thoughts...
The Boston Police Emerald Society sends our heartfelt sympathies. May "Butter" rest in peace. May his family and friends know how much he was loved!
