Not sure what to say?

I worked with Skip at Fenwick Hall. So deeply sorry to hear of his sudden passing. Sending my deepest sympathy and prayers. May God Bless.

We sang in I´Onissimo Sings together for several years. I never will forget his singing the sea shanties! Skip and Addison were such gifts to our choir. Deep condolences from Jean Anglin, Katherine Salmons, the Rosengren´s and Barbara Cole

Mary and all of the family, our prayers, love, and thoughts are with you at this sad time. We do rejoice that Skip knew his Savior. He is singing with the Angels and with his dear son.

My condolences to the Runge family. Skip, (Namu) as we called him in the surfing days, was always a joy to hang around with at St. Andrew´s High School and surfing together at Folly Beach. Although I never saw him again after hi school, the memories of his friendship have lasted for decades. Bill (Willie) McKevlin

Mary , I was saddened to read of your brother´s death. His was a life well lived . May he rest now in God´s sweet peace My love and sympathy to all of you.

Skip was the most generous, caring, unselfish man to everyone, and was always available as a dear friend to me. I will miss his voice, his sense of humor, his laughter, and most of all his heart. He was a true rock in every sense of the word, and I cherish the years of friendship we shared. My heart goes out to his family for their loss.

Mary, I am saddened to read about your brother's death. I did not know him, but I'm sure it's quite a loss for your family. May he have eternal memory. Mary Lee Demetre Lavelle
