When I was in kindergarten (way back when) at Hamagrael, I was out of school for six weeks. Gardiner was my bus driver - #15 - and he would stop in front of my house every day, honk, and wait for me to come to the window so he could wave to me. I was lucky to have him for so many years as my driver and I will always remember him fondly. I'm sure he will be missed. Prayers to his family.

My Sympathy to the Tanner Family. I so remember Gardiner in grade school in the old Rensselaerville school ( long gone now) I was 5 and he would tease me. I am Hazel Woods sister, Jean (Erickson) Coburn, Malcolms sister-in-law. My family were very close to the Tanner family many years and I went to school with some of the girls. It was long ago, but we never forget the people we were close to. May you be Blessed knowing he is with his siblings and family in Heaven. God's Blessings.

Sorry to hear about Uncle Gardner. I remember him always walking around clarksville when I was a child growing up. I'm sure there were times he walked me to school as well when I was at my grandmothers (his sisters) house. My thoughts are with Aunt Ginny and his other family

Dear family of Gardiner,
He was our family's bus driver for many years until he moved up in the organizatioin. He was our favorite! May you find comfort in knowing he was loved by so many young kids and made an impression on us that can bring a smile to our faces when we think of him now.
