Anthony "Tony" Alan Tenner and Susan Lanette (Peterson) Tenner After recently celebrating 40 years of marriage, Tony and Susan passed away within days of each other. Tony Alan, age 70 of Edina, passed unexpectedly on May 21, 2024, and Susan Lanette, age 64 of Edina, followed him after a brave years' long battle with breast cancer on May 29, 2024. We are grateful these life-long partners were reunited quickly and will rest in peace together. Tony was born on November 18, 1953, in Minneapolis, MN to Harriet and Joseph Tenner. Susan was born on July 10, 1959, in Emporia, Kansas to Arthur (Pete) and Dolores (Gloria) Peterson. Tony and Susan spent most of their adult lives in Minnesota, eventually settling in Edina. During their four decades together, Tony and Susan enjoyed golfing, biking, and traveling with family and friends, especially to Naples and Las Vegas. Their greatest joy in life was raising their beloved daughter, Victoria (Tori). They spent many wonderful years at Tori's ice skating and dancing competitions, visiting Tori at the University of Colorado at Boulder, traveling with friends, and attending family holiday events where the Tenners always had others laughing nonstop! In addition to his talents on the golf course, Tony was gifted in the kitchen, putting both to use in his professional and personal life. He took great pride in perfecting tasty recipes and new cooking techniques for his loved ones. Susan's career in retail and product sourcing took her to many of the best cities in the world, and when she wasn't traveling around the globe, she loved spending time at home, especially with her book club. Six years ago, Tony and Susan experienced the immense joy of becoming grandparents to their sweet grandson, Parker James. Parker is thriving as a kind, active, taekwondo-loving kindergartner who enjoyed visiting GG and Papa T in Minnesota, especially when that meant a chance to play in the snow. Tony is preceded in death by his mother, Harriet Tenner; father, Joseph Tenner; and brothers-in-law, Gary Lewison and Gerald Anderson. Susan is preceded in death by her father, Arthur "Pete" Peterson; brother, Scott Peterson; and sister-in-law, Patricia Peterson. Tony and Susan are survived by their loving daughter, Tori (Alex) Egler and grandson, Parker Egler, of Raleigh, NC; Tony's sisters, Judy Lewison and Jo Ann Anderson; Susan's mother, Gloria Peterson; Susan's brother, Arthur (Chip) Peterson; dear family friend, Bridget Conzemius; and many other members of their extended family and friends. A celebration of life will be held for Tony & Susan on Saturday, July 13th from 3:00 PM - 6:00 PM at the Pricco residence - 4807 Sheridan Ave S. Minneapolis, MN, 55410. In lieu of flowers, memorials to the Angel Foundation (www.mnangel.org) in honor of Susan and Tony are much appreciated.
