As you know I spent many years with your father at St. Anthony Messenger. We ate lunch almost every day together and became very good friends. Through this friendship my wife Sheila and I also became very good friends with your mother. We both send you our prayers.
Love and peace be you,

Dear Cary, Andi and Herb-
I knew both your mother and father, because of my work for St. Anthony Messenger, and delighted in them.
I remember one time when we were all attending the Catholic Press Association convention in New Orleans and it turned out that somehow we had forgotten to make the hotel reservations. Everything in town seemed to be booked. The friars got the first room available, and then your parents, and then I thought I was going to be left without a bed...

I never had the blessing of working with Art, but I came to SAMP right after he left; the state of the company reflected his devotion. And that fact tells me how supportive his wife and family were of his work at SAMP. I hope to meet both Art and Anita someday in heaven, and have the chance to tell them in person. Blessings and consolation to all the Runnels family.
