Hello my darling son..... in two days it will be two years since I lost your smiling face. I miss you to the day as much as the first day you were gone. Life can be so hard sometimes especially when we lose the ones we love the most. Im making it one day at a time and sometimes I don't know how. I think of you and know you never gave up and neiher will I! Kassie misses you too she told me so just the other day. We have had some problems in the friend department for awhile but I think we are finding our way back to being friends. I hope so I miss her a lot. I miss Vickie to we used to laugh a lot together. It's hard being out here on my own. Kelly and Jerimiah are getting married. We all knew what a crush you had on her. As the tears roll down my cheeks I know you are in a better place but I just miss you so much sometimes. They say it gets easier with time but not yet for me. Im good at being strong on the outside but inside is a whole nother story! I love you baby!

Hey Tanner and Charlotte:
Was just thinking about 2008 and went back to this site. Charlotte...the loss of our sons never will fade....but the memories carry on. I am glad my son Adam and Tanner got to team up at the UCSB wheelchair camp in 2007...so we knew how the wheelchairs easily faded and the kids were just kids

Hey Tanner...
Just wanted to let you know that your mom is doing pretty good...she was having a terrible time last week, but Kassie was there for her...I was her behind the scenes....don't want her to think I am mothering her too much...we had a good time with getting the tattoos...I'm sure there are going to be more coming....so I know you are watching over her but remember she also has angels here to help you out...

Charlotte,
It is the day after Christmas and you are on my mind. I was remembering your dad and how he was always so proud and bragging about Tanner everytime he came into the bank. Dallas would always tell great race stories of him and Tanner in their "scooters". He never failed to stop at my desk with his Tanner story of the day. Since your father's death and not having seen you in months, of course the first thing out of my mouth when I saw you before I even asked how you are was, "How's Tanner?" I was crushed when you shared his passing with me. You are such an incredible woman , mom and friend as you consoled me as I stood there crying in the bank. You are on my mind this Christmas. You are my gift this year. Thank you for your example of strength, love, dedication and perserverence. My prayers for peace are with you. I am certain that instead of racing scooters this Christmas, Dallas and Tanner are racing on foot and laughing all the way.I Love ya Charlotte. xoxo

Hello my beautiful son..........
Yesterday you would have turned sixteen....... but i am sure you know that. We had a party for you at Chili's last night. It was a hard day for me but I got throught it. You would have had so much fun. There were a ton of people and I got to have your milkshake when they sang Happy Birthday. You are on my mind all the time. I miss your cute little face. Me, Vicki and Kassie all got tattoos too. Can you believe Kassie got a tattoo? It was fun and they all turned out great. I got Jack the Pumpkin King for you!!!! Your name is on my back so you are close to me always. I feel you around often and know you are taking care of me from heaven! Thanks I need all of the help I can get. Tell Grandma and Grandpa I miss them and love them too!!!!!

I was just notified of Tanner's passing today. He was a student in my class at Anacapa. He was a wonderful boy. Such a welcoming and sweet person. He always had a smile on his face and goodness in his heart. He will be missed by everyone who was lucky enough to know him.

Charlotte Aubert - I just learned of Tanner's death, we were out of the state at the time, but it came as such a shock. I worked with Tanner for 3 years while he attended Anacapa Middle School, and I still think of him often. He was such a kind and gentle young man, and he often inspired me with his strength and attitude in the face of any obstacle. I felt privledged to know him and share those days at Anacapa with him. My condolences to you on your loss of a wonderful son. He touched many lives, and you can always be proud of the person he was. Again, I am sorry this is so late in getting to you.

We all miss you so much everyday! Kassie and I did the black and blue ball in honor of you this year. They raised a lot of money so we can help all of the other sick kids out there. Erica misses you too! Well I gotta go pack! I love you and miss you with all of my heart!!!!!!
Hugs and Kisses!

Tanner, I'm sure that you know how much I miss your smiling face but the memory of your smile will never fade from my mind. You were a true angel on this earth and I know that you are Gods special angel now. You taught people on earth how they should treat each other by your actions and your words(to be kind to one another and not have animosity towards one another, and to forgive one another). Charlotte, you are the strongest and most loving mother I have ever met. You raised a son whom nobody will ever forget. I love you both from eternity and beyond and thank God that we have many wonderful memories of you both forever! There are no words I can say to you for your loss, but I do believe the day you had Tanner, God blessed you with an Ange! If ever you need anything, let me know. Someday, we'll all meet in heaven. For now and forever you will have Stevie and Josh as your sons. I love you and admire your strenght! - Love, Lisa

You and Tanner have been an inspiration in my life and I know that Tanner is in heaven watching over us. He was an angel on this earth and now an angel in heaven. Stevie loved Tanner as a brother and you as a mom. I loved Tanner as a son and you for your huge heart and courage. We will all see each other again someday in heaven and be able to to watch a WWF match from above, together. Love always and forever, Lisa

My greatest amount of sympathy goes out to the Aubert family. Tanner was a friend of mine, I grew up with the kid. We shared many wonderful times at Portola Elementary and had some classes together at Anacapa Middle School. I was shocked to read about his passing because it seemed as if it was just yesterday we were sitting together in 7th grade science talking and laughing. Tanner was an inspiration to all and will be greatly missed but never forgotten.

My son Adam and I met Tanner last July 07 at the UCSB Wheelchair Camp. Both he and Adam were on the Orange Team. Tanner's spirit and level of energy were an inspiration.
I feel deeply for your loss as Adam, at thirteen died earlier in the year on January 23----expect both Tanner and Adam to be playing a mean game of Rugby up in heaven.
With or without the wheelchairs.

Sparkling angel you are full of grace,
Sparkling angel you bring a smile to my face.
Sparkling angel you showed me the truth,
Sparkling angel I need no proof.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I remember seeing Tanner around Pelican Point when I lived there and even after when I would visit my sister. Tanner always looked like such a happy kid cruising around in his wheel chair. I can't imagine your grief. Reading your guest book entry just took me over and I guess as a mother myself I can empathize with your pain. You are in my prayers.

Tanner,
I'm so sorry I didn't get to know you better in the time that you were here with us. I remember passing you many times in the complex as you rode along with the most joyful and serene look on your face.. I will always remember the kindness and empathy that you extended to others, and your incomprehendable love of all things.
With no difficulty, I can admit that I admire your passion and drive in the face of a physical burden, and the courage and strength you upheld at all times.
I can only imagine how happy you must be now, and I truely feel comforted knowing that I will have a friend and angel to greet me when it is my time to see you in Heaven.
I have no doubt that you are watching over your mom, dad, family and friends right now with that same joyful look on your face that I remember so well.
We are all so blessed to have known you and your incredible family. Thank you for everything Tan-Man, and enjoy the limitless love and warmth that God intended especially for you.
Take it easy Tanner.

My favorite memories of Tanner are the look of pride on his Grandpa Gaylord's face when Tanner came to visit and play in the basket of toys kept waiting for Tanner's return and Tanner dancing at the beach under Grandpa's "that's my boy" beam. Now he dances somewhere above us all and in his audience stands his Grandpa proud.
Charlotte and Gabe, I am so terribly sorry for your loss of Tanner.
Thinking of you both with love and appreciation for raising a son who accomplished so much.

It was a pleasure knowing Tanner as one of my students at Foothill Technology High School. I was his high school counselor and I worked hard to make sure Tanner had everything he needed at school, but this was “behind the seen” and he never knew this. However, when I would get out of my office and walk into the Media Center, I would often see Tanner working on his school projects and he would always great me with a kind greeting and a smile. I knew at these times that Tanner was a strong and wonderful person and I was determined to do everything in my power to make sure he had a great experience at Foothill Technology High School. I believe Tanner did have a ‘good’ year at Foothill Technology High School and he was in two classes with my daughter. She told me that Tanner was very nice and added to the class(s). Thank you for spending one year with us at Foothill, I know that the school is a better place because you were there and I hope you enjoyed your time a school as well! Thank you Tanner – Mr. Steve Boyd, Counselor

I met Tanner at the 2007 Wheelchair Sports Camp up here in Santa Barbara. One very cool thing that instantly impressed me about Tanner is that he had a way of making others feel really good about themselves. He will be sorely missed by his counselors, instructors, volunteers and myself. I am honored that I had a chance to be at camp with him. God Bless You My Friends.

Charlotte and Gabe, so sorry for your loss. I'll always remember Tanner as the fun kid that used to come in to the bank. He was such a positive person. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Hey Tanner,
It's mom. I just wanted to thank you for being such a wonderful son and inspiration in my life and so many others. I am staying strong because of you. Don't be mad because there are still going to be some more tears. I am so proud of the life you lead and what a strong young man you are. Give Grandma and Grandpa a big hug and a kiss for me. I will see you when I get "home" I love you baby!
Love Mom!

To Tanner’s family, especially to Charlotte & Kassie, I extend my deepest sympathy for your loss. During the few times that I saw Tanner, he was smiling and laughing. And now, I picture him running around with Milo and finally free from the pain.
If there is anything that I can do to help you, I am here.
May you find comfort in the knowledge that Tanner is in good hands.
Love you,

If there is anything either Steve or I can do, please give us a call.

Charlotte, I never had the honor of meeting Tanner. I had only heard stories from you and Kassie. I do know that Tanner was the light in your life. He still is, only now he's watching you from Above. We're praying for strength, for you and your family. Much Love~

Char and Gabe-
Tanner was such a lucky guy to have you both as his parents. The memories I have of him as this cute little baby and the smiles he brought to your faces I will never forget. Even though his time here was short you both gave him your all and that is what it means to be a parent. My heart and love goes out to you both.
Love,
Chris, Jake and Jenna

I was shocked to hear that Tanner had passed away. I had just seen him a few days earlier with the neighborhood boys laughing and having fun. That is the way I will remember him. But the pain you are going thru I can only imagine, My prayers and sympathy are with today and forever.

My prayers go out to Tanners family..especially Charlotte and Kassie..I know this has been hard on both of you. You both know that he is at peace and happy and just running around and doing the things he wasn't able to. Its harder on the ones left here, but you will all meet again and he will be waiting with open arms. I am here for both of you. You know that already.

I remember Tanner from about 10 years ago. He used to play with my son, Jalen, at our softball games. I was new to our work team and by him bonding with my son it allowed me to have something in common with his father, Gabe. He was a neat little boy and seemed friendly. Time had passed and his father kept me up to date with Tanner's health and I always remembered to say a little prayer that he would stay healthy. It deeply saddens me and my family to hear that Tanner has passed but I believe he is in a better place. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends and everyones life Tanner has touched.
