I just learned of your passing while searching for your contact info online. Over the past decade a week didn't go by that I didn't.think about calling you.   I've probably spent over a hundred hours in therapy weighing the pros and cons. The last time I was in Houston about to move to Los Angeles - I came by to see you and tell you I loved you.  The way you shuffled me aff and told me to "remember... the phone works both ways"left me sad and confused.  I knew that if I didn't initiate it we might never speak again.  You seemed ok with that and I haven't spoken to you in the 12 year's that passed.  I always thought the world of you.  When we were kids I remember you once told me that you were an atheist and what it meant.  I'm glad you finally found faith and something to believe in, I hope it gave you peace and comfort Ithat I wasn't able to....  You are loved and missed. Philip Gary Warner JR

Very sad news which just made it to me in British Columbia today.  My condolences to Phil's family.  As you know he was one of a kind.  Brilliant and funny.  We had great times together and with Pam, Arthur, Millicent, and David Lewis - as well as all of our hunting buddies, Steve Schweitzer, Bill De La Garza, Ken McConnico, Judge Norman Lee, Dick Clampett, Gus Kolius, Nicholas Emerson, and other cowboys and friends. Many afternoons after work spent at Sam Segari's and many, many days spent hunting and hanging out together in South Texas at the Paysinger Ranch or later at the Renner Ranch west of Kerrvillle.  His stories were things movies should be made of and  books written.  Small town boy from East Texas made it big as Editor-in Chief of the Houston Chronicle due to his towering intellect and wit.  That's only a small part of his story.  He didn't abide nonsense and fools.  We love you Phil.  Johnny

I am very happy that my family came with me from Lubbock to be with Philip at his resting place with Pammy. Whether we were sitting in his Kitchen or in an 18 wheeler PGW and I always had a good time. In his last 4 years he would spend Holidays at my house with my family. Thanksgivings are especially memorable. I was always in good company with Philip as I burn the Shiva candle. I will continue to think about all the times that we had together. Philip, you are loved, and you will be missed. Thank you my friend.

I was indeed saddened to hear of the Passing of Mr. Warner.  He was a long time Member of Primeway FCU.  I'm going to miss his funny stories and his Life as a Judge.  Rest well Mr. Warner, you deserve it Sir.
