PLEASE ACCEPT MY DEEPEST AND HEARTFELT SYMPATHY. I'M SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. MAY THE GOD WHO BINDS UP THE BROKEN-HEARTED COMFORTS ALL WHO MOURN AND SUSTAIN YOUR FAMILY DURING THIS CHALLENGING TIME. (ISAIAH 61:1,2).

Manne will never be forgotten, as he was unique in this world, and a true delight. How fortunate I am to count him amongst my friends. His spirit lives on indefinitely, and can be found once again in music, in a garden on a summer day, amongst nature, or whenever friends gather together to laugh about life. Missed by so many, but never forgotten.
