I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Phil through HSD, he will be very missed. He had such a gentle, calm, quiet demeanour- but he still got the work done! Darrel and Audrey I didn’t realize Phil was your brother. My prayers go out to you all.

Deepest condolences to you, Barb and family.
Phil was trustworthy work companion, great team mate in hockey, avid sports fan (loved our trips to Regina to watch the Bombers!) and friend. I have fond memories of the swims in Mom & Dad’s pool after unloading watermelons. May you find comfort in your memories.

I curled with Phil for over 20 years. We shared many highs and lows on the ice. Phil was always gracious, whether in victory or defeat. In our conversations it was clear to me he was that way in life as well. I was shocked to read the news of his passing. A man who will be greatly missed. Thank you for the memories Phil.

I had the opportunity to sit with Phil at a couple of MASBO sessions in June and valued his perspective, quiet demeanor and sense of humor. He was well known in the MASBO family, and will be missed.

Dear Barb, Thelma and Guenther families,
Phil was one of the four Guenther boys I babysat when I was in high school. We were next door neighbours. A gentle, kind boy who grew up to be a gentle, kind man. Deepest condolences to all. Wishing you peace and strength.

To a great brother, wonderful “Gramps”. There is always a place for you on the deck underneath the umbrella or a spot playing keep-up in the pool. You will be missed!

We are so in shock at this news.
We learned to know Phil a little bit through our association with The Manitoba School Business Organization.
Always enjoyed out visits and on a few occassions that we golfed together. A Gentle Soul gone too soon.
Sympathies and Comdolances to the Entire Family.
Ken Bergen, Winkler.
