Thankfully my father had a Funeral Plan with Tanner's and they took care of everything, I could not have asked for better care. It was a wonderful service given with care and compassion. I would not hesitate recommending Tanners to anyone in need of Funeral services. I will be forever grateful for their assistance during a time I wasn't expecting for at least another 10-15 years.
