Another Family Member Passes

I was saddened this past week when I learned of the passing of yet another Tener family member.

James F. Tener, born in Lorain, Ohio, January 8, 1940, the son of Alan L. and Grace F. Tener passed away at Hospice of South Central Indiana, Columbus, IN. He passed on April 29, 2011 at 10:08 AM. He is survived by his wife Susan L. Tener.

In keeping with Mr. Tener's wishes, he was cremated and there were no services.

(*NOTE: This information comes to us from a death notice in the Republic, a newspaper in Columbus, IN.)

Mr. Tener was noted in the Tener family genealogy book, page 78, published in 1949. I had contact with Mr. Tener in 2003, and he provided some photographs of a Tener family wedding held in Montclair, NJ.

He will be missed by family, and remembered by many!
