Remembering the fun times. Give Joanie a hug for me PJ.  Loved you since the day you were born - will love and miss you till the day I die.

His life was such a blessing, his memories are your treasure. He is loved beyond words and he is missed beyond measure. God bless you Rachel. May the Lord wrap his arms tightly around you with His comfort and His love and help you bare the unimaginable sacrifice and pain for yet another hurt. I can't even begin to process your pain. God bless you extra special Rachel. My heart cries with you.

I can't believe your are gone. I had some great times when we hung out. I was laughing about the time when we were playing on that tournament team and we went to get under armour shirts and I told ya to get the cold gear shirt cause it won't be that bad.  It end up being hot that day we played. You were sweating and providing some colorful words while laughing the entire time.  RIP Sauce.

P. Harper and family

PJ thank you. Thank you for loving Rachel and giving us Nolan. Thank you for being the hero you are. You went to work everyday risking your life to protect others. But most of all, thank you for giving us a million laughs, wonderful memories, and for being a part of our family. Words can’t tell you how much we miss you already. I know you and Nolan are watching over Rachel and I promise we will always be here for her. I love you PJ. 

My heartfelt condolences to the Family, Friends, and the BCFD on the loss of Lt. Paul Butrim.  Thank you, Lt. Butrim for your dedicated service to keeping the people of BC safe.  May God comfort all of you as you mourn the tragic loss of this young man.  My prayers of comfort and love are with all of you.

Pj I am so proud of the Hero you are and always have been. I am grieving for you my nephew who brought such joy to our family. I will so miss our texts and phone calls. And oh of course your voice saying Mariaaaaaaaan.   You brought so much joy and happiness to my Queenie and I know you and Nollie , my Cannoli will be watching over her.  I love you PJ and you will be in my thoughts and in my heart forever 💔❤️   Love Mimi

PJ to say we will miss you is an understatement. You made such a huge impact on our family from the very minute you and Rachel started dating, always there for any of us. You and Rachel were perfect for each other, enjoying the same things in your lives together, especially your passion for camping. I don’t think we could have picked a more perfect man for our daughter. In our hearts you were always a hero, and now the world knows it too! We know you are with Nolan now which gives us just a little comfort knowing he has his daddy, though we would much rather have you both here with us living a happy life. I will miss our phone calls and texts about whatever was going on.  I know you and Nolan will watch over Rachel from above, we will take care of her down here. We love you both so much, and will miss you forever ❤️❤️

Paul (PJ)- you were one of the first friends I made in Edgewood when I started there in 5th grade. We had some good times throughout the years, all the way through senior year and I will cherish all the memories and laughs. You’ll be missed by many. My thoughts are with your wife and family. Death is never easy and it’s harder when it’s someone you’ve known for a long time and grew up with, but it brings me some peace knowing you are with your son now. RIP hero. 

To PJ and Family- 

The news of your loss has traveled far and wide to reach the West Coast which is only a small indicator of how much impact you had on people’s lives. It has been more than 15 years since our time in high school and I only learned of your success and dedication to public service when I had learned of your passing. I am not surprised one bit that you ended up a Lieutenant! I am so saddened to hear of your passing. I am sorry that those who are closest to you are hurting. I will always remember the joy and laughter you brought others, your love for baseball, how much fun you made the EHS baseball team, humpshybanana ! I wish I could be there for your services this week as just one of the many, many faces in the crowd to honor your life. 

To PJ’s parents - your son was so funny and fun to be around ! He had a righteous indignation about his spirit that won’t be forgotten. I am sorry for the pain yesterday, today, and tomorrow that this has brought to your lives. 

In hope and prayers, 
McKenzie (Daniel) Jacobs 

God bless you for your sacrifice. No greater love hath a man than to give his life in service  to his brother. With 
my  highest respects ,RIP!

I loved watching you marry your best friend and starting a life together.  You created and loved Nolan for a wonderful 2 years. I know you are with him smiling down and protecting your beautifully,  wonderful  wife and momma, Rachel. 


Dear Butrim Family,
I want to express my deepest condolences to all of you on the loss of Paul who was an outstanding husband, father, son, brother and firefighter. He laid down his life protecting the residents of Baltimore City. I am praying for your family and community to be comforted by God always.  Psalm 34:18 says, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." May God always be near all of you. May your community of supporters be with all of you always. You will forever and always be in my prayers. 
In Christ's Love,
Ada N. Orie 

Dear Hero, may God Bless you for your time and service to all of the people of Baltimore. May He send your family, friends, co-workers and all who are grieving during this time His Peace, Comfort, Strength and Love. You along with your friends who went Home with you will never be forgotten. Rest in Heavenly Peace Amen 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

PJ  We will always remember the great memories of you and (as Keith Michael put it) all the Edgewood boys as you grew up together.  Looking through our photo albums, we found pictures of the time you went with us to Wildwood on vacation and also the time you went to Yankee Stadium with our family.  One thing I will never forget is the time you came over and told me you had to call your mom and tell her where you were.  After picking up the receiver of our "rotary phone" you looked at me and said, "How do you use this?"  LOL.  PJ, your memory will live forever in our hearts!  God bless you and may He comfort your family.
With love,
Nance and Keith Tiedemann and family 

May you find the courage to face tomorrow in the love that surrounds you today.
Judi…. Mom & grandmother of fire fighters 

Hey buddy, while you’ll always be remembered as “Paul” to the city and some coworkers…you’ll always be PJ and Party Boy to me and all of us Edgewood guys.  I’ll never forget all the ball games, summer vacations, Super Bowl parties, fishing, crabbing, and watching The Rock over and over.  I still laugh at that Susky Braves game when you broke 3 bats (that weren’t yours haha).  And that EHS practice we all got yelled at, “No more Humpsya Banana and your childish games!”  I’ll never forget seeing you on the street when we both worked in the Eastern District, me on Edison Hwy and you on Montford.  You will be sorely missed by us all, but never forgotten.  My prayers go out to your family, who was a second family to me.

I guess this also wouldn’t be complete without me mentioning your shrine to Brady Anderson!!  Love you Party Boy 

As his Brothers it always very hard to hear about the lost, of one of our Brothers or sisters. We find some comfort in knowing he passed in a Job he loved. But that still falls to help us understand why he had to pass so young, & leave behind his loving family that our in much pain today and in the mo to come. All we can say is that our GOD is in control of our lives, and why is our Lord calling him home it’s the unknown mystery of our lives. To the family at this most horrific and unbelievable time,When you look up and the wind is blowing it’s his way of telling you that he’s OK, and will always miss everyone and with his protecting hand guide you two piece. He’s resting now with all of our fallen brothers that are always looking over our shouldersWith their blessed hands to keep us safe. My deepest condolences to all my brothers and our firefighter family Eugene to Trotta Ret DCFD Local 36 Washington DC

Paul,

I had the opportunity to grow up in the fire service with you. You volunteered at Joppa and I was at Bel Air. We both worked at Hart to Heart, and later the Foundation. I also had the chance to work with Daisy later at the Living Legacy Foundation.

Rest easy Brother, 

Dan Ricks 
Life Member- Bel Air VFC
