Sandersville Progress - December 19, 1917
  The subject of this brief sketch, Milo H. Tanner, was born in Washington 
County, Georgia, December 4, 1886, and died November 26, 1917, lacking but a 
few days of being thirty one years of age.

  He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. S.F. Tanner, the faithful and able 
superintendent of the Washington County Home for the Poor, and he died as he 
had always lived at the home of his father and mother.

  He never married, but preferred to remain with his parents and two unmarried 
sisters, and to them he was a source of great joy and comfort in the home.

  He was a very modes young man, always retiring, gentle and kind; always in a 
good humor and wearing the smile with which he always greeted his friends ad 
loved ones.

  He had a great many friends who loved and appreciated him for his gentleness 
and kindness, his manliness and the purity of his young life, for he did live 
such a life, and no one has ever failed to appreciate him who knew him.

  His death was peculiarly sad and a very great sorrow to his aged parents, as 
well as the many friends.

  On the gray November day after he died he was tenderly laid to rest by loving 
hands in the cemetery at Tabernacle Church where the funeral services were 
conducted by Rev. T.A. Mosely, attended by a large concourse of people.

  The friends and neighbors of the stricken family will always be remembered 
for their loving kindness and gracious ministrations during the sickness and 
death of this noble young man.

  Milo was a brother of F.B. Tanner, C.W. Tanner, O.W. Tanner and T.E. Tanner 
and Mrs. I.L. Doolittle and Misses Gussie and Jeanette Tanner.
