Christopher "Tony" Tanner, 43, entered the gates of heaven on September 27th, 2021. He leaves behind a grieving family that is deeply saddened by his loss. His best friend and life partner, Carrie Milburn; his children, Jacob (Yelika) Tanner-Milburn, Payton Tanner-Milburn and Kailynn Tanner-Milburn; grandchildren, Jiana and Jayce Tanner; mother, Brenda Blythe; mother-in-law, Deanna Milburn; brothers, William (Leslie) Blythe, Jesse Blythe, Tony (Vicki) Milburn, Bill (Charmaine) Milburn; sister, Dana (Charles) Gunning; cousins, Anthony Smith, Stephen Smith and Stephanie Frazier; many nieces and nephews along with extended family and close friends. Tony was preceded in death by his father, Bill Tanner; Grandfather, "Pap"; Father-in-law, Bill Milburn; and beloved furry companion, Dexter.
Tony had many "loves" in his life. He loved Carrie nearly his whole life, having met while Tony was still in middle school. He loved his three kids and he loved his grandbabies. He especially loved spoiling them. He loved the business he and the boys started, he was a talented stone mason. He was dedicated to the business and worked tirelessly to build the company's clientele, their brand, and to provide for his family. Tony was passionate about both four wheeling and fishing, especially when doing them with his boys. He loved spending time with his family, being in the country and being hardheaded. He loved life in general. "Sunset" came too soon for Tony and we thank our lord for sharing him with us. Until we meet again.
Visitation Thursday, Oct. 7, 2021 from 12pm-2pm, Funeral to follow at Newcomer, SW Chapel, 3393 Broadway, Grove City, OH. 43123.
