Condolence: Joan, we are thinking of you and sending our prayers and good thoughts. Susan and Chris

Condolence: I wish to extend my deepest condolences to the Runnels Family. May you find peace to bring comfort and wonderful memories to forever hold in your hearts. I met Phil at Pasco County Animal Services where he cared so lovingly for our cats and kittens. His kindness and compassion are most appreciated and will always be remembered. He will be greatly missed.

Condolence: Our condolences to Phil's family on his untimely death. We had just seen him at our 50th high school reunion in May. In time, may the sorrow of his passing be surpassed by all of the memories you created over the years.

Condolence: I am so sorry for your loss. Phil was a great guy and I have fond memories that go way back to elementary school.

Condolence: It is with a heavy heart that we write this message. All of my memories are happy happy ones of the days when our families lived close to each other and our everyday lives were shared for all occasions - even the backyard birthday parties in Berkley MI! We
fondly remember the trip to Wisconsin with our newborn son (his first time to travel); We were heading to Wautoma for Guy & Butch to be in your wedding. It is really sad that logistics really changed that great relationship. WHAT A WAY TO GO, PHIL!!!! and with your dogs on your lap - that really makes us smile! We are happy that you had good health and a loving family - you are a lucky man. Love, Mary & Guy

Condolence: Joan - My heart is with you and your family. I was shocked to hear of Phil's passing. I recall the Wautoma days, remember how Phil and family would come up for Grandma Runnels birthday. I remember how he had met you and was determined to marry you, and how humbled I was to be best man at your wedding.
The years pass too quickly and sometimes end too quickly. I have read the other messages and am thankful for the lives he touched. I was also touched by his love of his pets. His dad also had that same love of his puppy.I think his name was Jacques.
Over the years I have also been a teacher, counselor and pastor. I have prayed for you and your family during this time. I will keep you in my prayers.
When a Christian passes, their spirit goes to be with the Lord, but their memories remain. May your memories bless and comfort you.
Blessings.
Jim Johnson
