You have my deepest sympathy in the loss of dear Tad. I was shocked to read his obituary in today's paper.
I hadn't seen Tad in such a long time but I have memories of him as a little boy and when he was at Y camp.
It's hard to lose a child, we're supposed to go first but I know that happy memories of past times will sustain you now and in the future.
Please call on me if I can do anything and in the meantime I will keep you in my heart and prayers.
Love, Orlean

Sandra and I have very fond memories of Tad as a young man, when we visited with the Thacker family often at Whitehall. We'll remember his upbeat spirit and friendly laugh, and the good times he helped us have. We offer our genuine sympathy, love, and prayers to the family.

Tad was a friend of my sister Janie & I in high school. He was a wonderful, witty and generous guy. I bought my firest serious guitar amp from him when I graduated from Cedar Shoals. We both loved talking and listening to music. I'm sorry we lost touch.
