Obituary

Mayor tennant, 64 of south charleston, was a very courageous, quiet, and hardworking man.

He fought so hard a terminal cancer that was spreading slowly but surely. In the end it was not the cancer that had the absolute final say, but for mayor, it is in some way a small victory. Mayor had a willingness to do anything for you within his power.  his great big “˜ole heart that seemed to have broken right in two and carried him away above his suffering and “with his boots on”.
