We are saddened to know that our dear beloved neighbor has passed away but what a life she had! She always told us of her many travels with her friends and family. She was a wonderful neighbor and kind in every way. We will greatly miss her!

We were so fond of Mary and of Allen. She was just a delightful person. We talked many times of her affection for William and Mary (which we shared). Mary will be missed by many. Shirley and Aubrey Fitzgerald

Dear Allen, Benjamin, and Beth--I am so sorry of your mother's passing on, but so happy for the long life that she lived. As we all grew up in Riverside, she and your dad were like a second set of parents to me. I have many fond memories of those elementary and high school years and your mother will be missed by me and many others, in addition to you and your family. I wish the best to you all and your extended family as we move forward with our lives.
With sympathy from your friend, Kempton

Mary will certainly be missed as a member of the Southern Hatters, Red Hat Club. She was truly graceful and fun to be around as well. I am sending up healing prayers to her family and friends and she will be missed.

Dear Beth, Libby, Peter Jr and family,
Your Mother/Grandmother was simply a joy to be around. During hectic holidays and events she was always the calm in the storm. Mrs. Tanner was not only graceful and kind but incredibly talented....whether it was making beautiful wreaths out of magnolia leaves or creating the prettiest bridesmaid dresses she did everything with ease. A remarkable woman who will be greatly missed. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
God Bless.
