Edward E. Tanber, Jr. 1930-2009

TOLEDO, Ohio - Edward E. Tanber, Jr. died July 7 at Heartland of Holly Glen where he lived two weeks.  He was 78.

Ed’s heart had been failing for several years, but somehow he managed to overcome one setback after another to continue his mission at the Step One Club on West Sylvania Avenue, where for more than three decades he helped thousands of club members and others control their addictions – along with his own - one day at a time.
