NBA star Rasual Butler, 38, and his wife Leah Butler were killed in a car accident on Wednesday in Studio City. Hollywood took to social media to mourn the loss of the former San Antonio Spurs player and Leah, an “American Idol” alum and R&B singer.
But just days before his death, Rasual, shared a tribute of his own to his only daughter, Raven, on Instagram.
“My daughter is so 🌊yyyy! Her Aura, spirit, style, creativity, intellect, passion and understanding for her age is a beautiful thing to watch as very proud father! She understands things about being solid many adults struggle with,” Rasual shared.
“@ray.svea I Love you with every single element of human anatomy that allows me to be here in the physical as your father, friend, partner and inspiration for everything driving me to be the ultimate best version of me.”
Raven has yet to post a note to her late dad on her Instagram page.
