I just heard about your loss and my heart goes out to all of you. The loss of a child has to be the most difficult tragedy to deal with on this earth. I pray you can soon find some peace and remember all the wonderful times.

To the family of Tanner: You don't know me, but I lost my only son Seth, age 19 in a car crash almost 5 years ago. He was the love of my life. Only a parent can really know the horrible loss of such a young child. They had their whole life ahead of them, now it's gone. They only not lost their future, but us as parents, lost our future as well. God Bless you and your family and you will always be in my thoughts and prayers. From another grieving parent. Seth's mom, Sharon

Kelly, Val and Jordan,

I hope you somehow managed to at least find a little joy in Thanksgiving this year. You were in my thoughts and prayers everyday during the holiday. Even in our worst storms in life, God always provides a glimpse of hope and joy ~ sometimes it takes a long time for us to recognize it. Don't ever forget God is ALWAYS there for you ~ especially during troubled times.

Please know that as I enjoyed Matt & Lance being home, my heart was breaking for you guys. I gave them extra hugs in memory of Tanner. None of us are exempt from this type of devastation, so nothing in life should be taken for granted.

I'll continue to hold you close in my thoughts & prayers!! May you be feeling Tanner's wonderful spirit in your heart each and every day!

Love you guys,

Nancy Krogh

Dear Pap Family,
I want you to know that I cannot stop thinking about you and your immeasurable loss. I was just informed of your loss this past Thanksgiving. I remember Tanner as a great goalie and wonderful boy when our boys played hockey together. My deepest sympathy goes out to you. God Bless you and your family.

Kelly & Val...we just heard about the death of Tanner. You will be in our thoughts and prayers.

November 17, 2012

Dear Kelly, Val and Jordan,

I can't stop thinking about you guys ~ especially yesterday. I wasn't able to make it to Tanner's life celebration ~ I'm sure it was a beautiful service representing Tanner's amazing life! We didn't know Tanner, but wish we could've ~ he sounds like an amazing young man!

My heart is absolutely breaking for your loss. Losing a child is not what us parents are supposed to have to deal with! I wish I could take away the pain you're feeling, but the best thing I can do is pray for you and that I will continue to do for a long time! God is the ultimate healer, and he hears all our prayers that are being said for you! He has you wrapped up in his loving arms and eventually provide the healing and peace that you need to continue this journey of life without Tanner in your physical presence. He will always be with you in spirit and memories!!

I'd like to share a reading that has helped me journey through some storms in my life.

THE STORMS OF LIFE

When the storm clouds gather
And your life is filled with care
Let Jesus help you through each day
For He is ALWAYS there

He's not just watching for afar
When life's river rages through
For when you feel you can't go on
With love ~ He carries you

He promised to be with you
His presence you will know
He will help you through the storms of life
Because He loves you so

Isaiah 43:2

When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee...

Love you guys & God bless you,

My Name is Sam Mellem i am Tony and Tracy's nephew,Id like to say thank you for having an amazing son. Tanner had a big impact on my life after my dad died he always had a big smile on his face and made me feel apart of the team and always was there when i was kinda sad he always told these funny jokes and made me laugh!! I still remember being right next to him while he was puking before the hockey games he was an amazing friend and a great goalie! The things that i have learned from loosing my dad is although you cant talk to him he still listens and now he is your angel guiding you from above and is always by your side even though you cant see him! but I am very sorry for your loss you will be in my thoughts and prayers!! and ps: I will wear this bracelet with honor because blue and orange are my favorite colors.

Pap family,

I can't express how sorry I am for your loss. Tanner and I became friends freshman year of college in Madison when we were paired up to be lab partners in chemistry class. I transferred to the U the next year but we still kept in touch, I was very happy to get a text from him early last year telling me he was transferring to the U this fall. We reconnected this fall and met up several times on campus and were planning on playing in a boot hockey league together this winter. I'm so thankful to have known him, he was an incredible guy with an infectious laugh and sense of humor. I'll miss him forever and think about him every day.

Emily Collins

November 15, 2012

All of my love and support to your family in this time of hardship and struggle. I only had the pleasure of meeting Tanner a few times through Josh & Muhamed. However brief, he touched my life in those moments. I have never met someone more genuinely interested in me, my day, my life...he was generous with his time and had a servant's heart. I truly regret that I won't have more time to get to know him. He was respected, loved, and won't be forgotten.

Peace and strength be with you today and in the days to come.

November 15, 2012

What can you say in a time like this??? I am so sorry to hear about Tanner. I can't imagine the grief that you are going through now as a parent. I lost a brother unexpectedly, I saw what my parents went through and I would not wish that upon another. Hang in there. Prayers and friends will make the pain lessen but there will certainly always be something missing, the wonder what he could have done with life, where he would have been...

You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. I hope that God will grant you a bit of peace now and during the future - knowing that your son is safe in his hands.

Dear Kelly, Val and Jordan,

It's been quite awhile since we've seen you guys, but think of you often as we pass by your old house here on Yalta. Words seem so trivial at times like these & the heartache is so piercing and real.

Please know that our hearts are breaking because your wonderful Tanner has been physically taken from you so unexpectedly and at such a young age.

We didn't know Tanner personally, but just by looking at his picture we can tell he was definitely one of God's special angels here on earth. He definitely had a genuine and infectious smile. God blessed Tanner with you as his parents and brother, and also blessed you 3 with him as your son and brother.

We hope you have been feeling all the prayers we've said since last Friday, and that you feel God's loving arms wrapped around you in a comforting way you've never felt before. These words come to mind ~ hope you find comfort & strength in them.

"BE STRONG IN THE LORD ~ NEVER GIVE UP HOPE ~ GOD'S GOT HIS HAND ON YOU ~ DON'T LIVE LIFE IN FEAR".

We pray that through your sadness and tears, healing comes and joy returns to your hearts. May your memories of Tanner bring a smile to your faces, warm your hearts and provide you with infectious laughter.

"I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME" ~ ~ ~ Philippians 4:13

Love and God bless you all,

Dear Val, Kelly and Jordan,
Words can not express our sorrow. Tanner was such a bright fixture at our house, hanging out, his quick wit, loving up the dogs , helping around the yard, and doing pull ups in the kitchen. He always updated us on his family with such love in his eyes and in his voice. He had such a big heart and so much love to give you can be so proud of him. Know that he and you are always in our thoughts and prayers.

He had such a big heart, quick wit, and would update us about his family with such love in his eyes and voice. He was a joy in our lives that will never be forgotten. May your memories be a blanket of comfort and know all of you are in our thoughts and prayers during this most difficult time. He will always be loved and remembered along with all of you!

November 14, 2012

I am absolutely heart-broken over your loss. I so wish I was still living next door to you so I could cry with you and embrace you. It's impossible for me to believe he is gone…to me he will always be the little boy who kept throwing groceries out of the back of your van when he was mad at Val. And the determined little boy who ran after Buster over and over again, trying to tackle him and landing in poop, but not caring. And the boy who would leave his friends to come and chat with me when I came home.

He was such a delightful child to me and obviously had wonderful parents who raised him that way. He will always be that boy to me, and always loved.

My sincere and heart-felt condolences to your entire family. I am so very sorry.

We are overwhelmed with grief over the loss of such an amazing, kind hearted young man! Looking back over the years and watching him grow up to be such an incredible gift! One of his many talents was being a outstanding goalie. He made many incredible saves. The one save that stands out to me the most is how he made such a impact on my nephew Sam's life after he suffered the loss of his Father at such a young age. Tanner went out of his way to uplift Sam and made him feel special and part of the team. His impact is still felt to this day by Sam. Also for being such an incredible friend to Mitchell. We feel truly blessed to have been able to be a part of Tanner's life. We will miss his big eyes, contagious smile and warm heart! We are at such a loss of words as to how very sorry we are! We hope that God will bless you and give you strength! We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Thank you for sharing such an amazing person.
