Original:
Black and White Conversion:
Does anyone have a clue, or direction to look in??

*sniffles* Craig, why don't you just go ahead and stomp on my heart? That was NOT the answer I was looking!!!  
I thought it might have been as well, but the loops are just so... perfect. The only curve that looked slightly wonky was the 'u'. But I thought the 'B' and 'u' might have been custom and the rest was from some font out there in the vast universe...

I'm no font expert, it may have started from a font at some point, but it looks too free form. The leaning "l", the way the letters interconnect so seamlessly, the tail of the "y" going underneath the preceding letter, the double "t" sharing the same cross bar ... etc.
Are you needing to "redraw" the logo? Or are you just looking for something similar for a different project?

I think the body of the font might actually be Jiffy

Are the T's actually L's with a line through them?

it's most definitely Jiffy
use a lowercase "b"
Then flip the b to make the left side of the butterfly or something.
(if it's not jiffy then it's very very very close)

It most definitely is not jiffy. Here's a comparison. Jiffy on right.
Notice how the y is completely different. especially the tail and the weird loop on the right of the upper part of the y on jiffy. The f is off as well. It may be in the same realm of the logo, but clearly not what the logo was derived from. I suppose you could call it "close" jut because they're both handwritten and loopy ... but ... they're not that close.
