Not sure what to say?

Dear Tanner Family,

My condolences. I was very saddened to hear that Chuck had passed. He was one of the first kids that I met in San Pedro after arriving here from Norway in May, 1949, we often played cowboy and Indian together and listened to
radio programs like "Straight Arrow", "Sky King", "Gang
Busters", and such. That was when the Family lived on
Barbara Street in the Palisades, close to grandparents',
the Peale's Market, which is now called The Corner...

Dear Jo Ann ~ So sorry to hear of your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Chuck was a wonderful guy, a real gentleman and a role model for all of us.

Oh, JoAnn, I am so sad! I first met Chuck in the 5th grade at Miraleste. I know how difficult this is now for you and for your large and wonderful family. All the love and support you all are receiving now can't fill the void, but please know we all care very much. Love you all.

To the Tanner Family....so sorry for your loss. Have known Chuck since the 6th Grade. As one of many of my Miraleste neighbors, was always a kind and helpful friend. He will be fondly remembered by all.

Joanne and Family,
Just want to say how sorry I am for the loss of your father and husband. My son was Earl D. Green he was married to Ginnie Green. So I know you all were really close friends. May the Lord Comfort you and guide you during this difficult time.

This is such a shock. I last worked with Chuck in 2009 but it seems like yesterday. We have kept in touch when job opportunities arose. You spend so much time with those you work with you get to know them as a sort of family. JoAnn, he often spoke of how much you meant to him. Peace be in your heart until you see him again. May your family also except my condolences. Your in my prayers.
