About me

Introduction My name is Stephen Tanner. I am a sixty one year old male with Multiple Myeloma, and even though my disease is the reason for this blog site, it by no means defines who I am. Who am I? I am husband to Lynn, my eternal companion and best friend for the last 41 years. I am the father of two daughters, Jennifer and Kelly, grandfather of nine and father-in-law to two wonderful men who had the good sense to marry my daughters. I am a Child of God. I am a product of my western pioneer heritage. I am one of ten children. I am an ex U. S. Air Force pilot. I love my country. When I was young I dreamed of being a professional baseball player. However, as a teenager I realized that wasn’t going to be, minor problems with strength, speed and coordination. I have faith in God and trust him to guide my life. I believe there is a purpose in all of our trials even though it is not always obvious to us at the time. My family is the greatest joy in my life. I am a Program Manager for a company that designs and builds computer generated visual systems for flight simulators. I love it and the people I work with, but it is what I do, not who I am.
