I was sorry to hear about Mann's passing. I didn't find out until a couple of weeks afterwards. I thought about him and Bonnie on their birthday in May. I am so sorry.

Cannot believe it was just a couple of weeks ago we saw Mann, Janie Ruth and Missy at the Tifton Heart Rehab. Dear precious Kirkland Families, our thoughts and prayers go out to you all, but know Mann has a new heart now and no longer suffering. He is singing with that Heavenly choir now and oh what a joyous sound that must be. Love you all and God blessings be upon you.
