If they were buried in Hartlepool (where I was born) then the lady in the cemetery office in Stranton Grange Cemetery is really helpful and will look up deaths for you for any cemetery in Hartlepool. They have really good records and if you are local to the area you could call in and they have maps of the cemetery and will mark on the map where any grave is situated. I have never had to pay anything for this service.

To see the full records you need to set up an account, log in and purchase access to the records - looks like £1.50 per item

There are Cemetery Register results on the site for
Joseph Butcher 1958 of 11 Porvis Place (as per 1939) and
Althea Butcher 1961 - of 12 Davison Drive, Hartlepool

There may be some info in the records??

1911 census for Isaac and Isabella shows married 26 years with 12 children born alive and still alive

15 births below Butcher / mmn Robinson in Hartlepool

No other marriage that combination in that area 1880 +/- 10 years

**There are 12 to be found in 1911 who have appeared on 1891/1901/1911 census with the family

Doesn't look to be room for a Joseph 1888 or 1893-ish

3 appear to have died very early and whilst the 1911 says no children have died, I wondered if Isabella was theirs in view of Mother's name - EDIT - but not unless they forgot to count her in the 12. ?Same could be said for other 2 not counted

If the DOB stated in 1939 is correct (and that's not necessarily the case), there are these births:

BUTCHER, JOSEPH mms DEAN

BUTCHER, JOSEPH CHARLES mms RUSSELL

Of those two, the Steyning one looks the more likely, as your friend's Josoeph married as Joseph with no middle name.
