What was possibly Tanner's last video interview has now been put up:

The memorial service is scheduled for this afternoon in Amarillo, TX. One of the news sites put up contact information and where to send cards, donations, etc. I'll see if I can find them later.

Much respect for this man who fought so hard with so much. Evan Tanner was one heck of a guy in and out of the octagon and I know people that thought the world of him on personal level. We'll always remember you brotha.

Evan Tanner was the kind of fighter I really admire. He may have not had all the skills in the world but when he stepped in that Octagon he fought his heart out every time and became a champion doing it. His passing is a huge loss not only in mma but on all levels. Although I obviously didn't know him personally I can't help but think he was the same kind of guy outside the cage as he was in it.
RIP Evan Tanner.
