Not sure what to say?

I am sorry to read of your loss. My Mom (Vera Tillman) and I both worked for him at Post House. He taught me a lot as I was just a teenager. Mom talked about Him and Mrs. Claborn a lot. They were always fond memories for her as she had a great respect for both of them.

So sorry to hear of Burl's passing.

To the Claborn Family,

Mr. Claborn touched our family lives in so many ways. He was a role model, friend, our boss at Tanner and Post House Cafeteria, problem solver and a true American hero. These attributes are what made him truly one of a kind. He may be gone but he will not be forgotten. Roberta Hazzard and Family

I am sorry for your loss. I was an employee of Tanners many, many years ago. I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Claborn. He was that wonderful man. He lived a legend by having a business that gave him such a great reputation such as "the best hot dogs in town".
Sincerely,
Diane Mincey-Hayward
