Myron “Tunner” Hanselman died July 11, 2018, surrounded by his family at Whitehall Manor, Allentown.

He formerly resided in Centre Hall.

He and his wife Doris (Young) Hanselman were married 65 years.

Born in Wolfe’s Store, he was the son of the late Irwin Blaine and Nora (Bowersox) Hanselman.

A 1952 graduate of East Penns Valley High School, in 1951 he enlisted in the Pennsylvania Air National Guard.
