Evan Tanner Memorial

I found this on another site, thought I would pass it along

Quote:

I spoke with Jeff(Evan's brother) today and they have Evan's memorial planned. His memorial will be held in Amarillo, TX on September 27th at 2:00 p.m. at the Civic Center. The Civic Center is located at 401 South Buchanan Street.

If anyone wishes to send flowers or cards, they can be sent to Jeff Tanner, 504 S Harrison Street, Amarillo TX 79101. The family has also set up a memorial fund with The Amarillo National Bank. If you are interested, please email me for the details. The bank is supposed to have it on their website but it isn't there yet. I tried calling them but no one was still there that could help me. I will call them first thing in the morning and get back with everyone about how to proceed.

I think it would be wonderful if Evan's family could truly understand how much Evan meant to our MMA world. Please share your encounters and inspirations with his family. I believe in this dark time for them it would bring light and help them heal.

I don't know if this is really the thread for it but between Joe Rogan's beard

And Chris's Cornrows:

There seems to be a lot of Evan Tanner love going around

I noticed Joe's beard but didn't even think about it but when Leben was fighting I thought to myself, man he looks like Tanner.

EDIT: Found some stuff about Joe and his beard.

Quote:

When you watch UFC 89 tomorrow night, you’re going to see a more hirsute version of Joe Rogan than you’re used to. That’s because he’s grown out an Evan Tanner tribute beard. When the idea was originally suggested on the UG forum a month ago, Joe replied “**** yeah, I’m down.” Feel free to show your support by not shaving tomorrow. And pour some out for the beloved inspiration…

Sweet tattoo too!

I must be one of Tanner's best fans...I only shave about once a month.
