I can't so I will say it here. It has meant the world to our family through this terrible time for so many people to care so much. We didn't realize how far Johns reach is. He is much improved but still has a long way to go. With all your prayers, I know we can make it. Thank you all so much for caring for my big brother.

He has been my favorite professor to date. I am thinking and praying for him and his family through this tough time. - ...

Don't forget to let his family know we are thinking of the Tanner family. - Sonja Wed, 17 Jun 2009 09:07:50 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4536#comment-1389 Dr Tanner is a wonderful person. My thoughts and prayers are with him. - Jan Broussard Wed, 17 Jun 2009 07:45:51 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4536#comment-1388 I didn't realize how much I missed him till I sat through my first summer class with the quirky professor, he would have loved it. I miss my uncle soooo much. - Brandy Collins Wed, 17 Jun 2009 02:18:38 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4536#comment-1385 I can only echo what's been said above, Dr. Tanner truly cared about his students & was willing to help as much as you needed as long as you tried. He teaches much more than QMET, he taught us all about life & being challenged even if we didn't know it at the time. Here's to a full & speedy recovery. - Brian Bille Tue, 16 Jun 2009 15:11:03 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4536#comment-1383 It's hard to add anything to what's been said above. My mentor thru the MBA program, an advisor when teaching as an adjunct and just a real good friend. Hurry back, John. - Ken Morrogh Tue, 16 Jun 2009 14:10:15 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4536#comment-1381 I would like to add agreement to the comments above. Dr. Tanner was one of the most personal professors I had at UL-Lafayette. May God aid him and his family. - Nick Bouterie Tue, 16 Jun 2009 11:05:54 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4536#comment-1379 I hope Dr. Tanner pulls through! He is one of the best professors I've had in college. He is a good man and made college very interesting and fun at the same time. - Jonathan Suldo Mon, 15 Jun 2009 21:20:12 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4536#comment-1378 Dr. Tanner is one of the few professors that is willing to go the extra mile for each and every one of his students as long as the are willing to do their part. He is an honest, caring, and extemely intelligent man. He always taught us that we could achieve the impossible as long as we put our minds to it, so I know deep down inside he is fighting to recover! Both Dr. Tanner and his family are in my prayers. UL will not be the same without him! - Jenna Martin Mon, 15 Jun 2009 20:04:50 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4536#comment-1374 As stated above Dr. Tanner is a great teach and an excellent mentor to college students, I hope and pray he makes a full recovery. - Levi Kastner Mon, 15 Jun 2009 15:16:30 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4536#comment-1371 I pray for Dr. Tanner's recovery. He is a great teacher, an excellent mentor to students and an all-around good guy. - Joseph Cotton Mon, 15 Jun 2009 14:10:15 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4536#comment-1369 Dr. Tanner is a wonderful teacher who makes a huge difference in the classroom. He is great with students and all of us who took his class know what a wonderful person and professor he is! He is tough! - Paige Braud Mon, 15 Jun 2009 14:06:35 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4536#comment-1368 The odds may be against Dr. Tanner, but I hope he pulls through. He is one of the few teachers at ULL that really seemed to care. - Jason Alban Mon, 15 Jun 2009 12:44:40 +0100
