In appreciation: James Tanner Sr.

“Thank you” does not come close to encompassing the immense appreciation we feel for our family, friends and community. There are no words to express the heartfelt gratitude we have for each of you, for everything you have done to support our family in these last two years, including Noble Horizons and the Millerton firehouse. 

We would like to thank Noble Horizons for the compassion and understanding they have given to our family. While our family went through the devastation that a cancer diagnosis brings to a family, Noble continued to be supportive and gave us the ultimate gift of invaluable time. 

The Millerton firehouse was a huge help from the start. They hosted a benefit upon learning of Jim’s diagnosis, assisted in our daughter’s wedding so Jim could walk her down the aisle and at the end hosted his celebration of life. 

There were countless other businesses and community members who supported us in our time of need. From the overwhelming generosity of you all, it’s easy to see how many lives Jim had touched in our community. He was truly honored that so many people cared. 

Sometimes “it’s not the length of life, but the depth of life” that matters.
