Storm.....all of us have a few amazing mentors in our lives. These folks are rare, invaluable and become a part of us. All my mentors are gone now but they still speak to me daily.....not exactly in words, but incredibly, they influence me all the time. From your tribute I can tell that John Mann was one of those special mentors to you. You are a lucky man to have been able to share that much time and experience with him. We can all count ourselves lucky to have come into contact with John and our lives are richer for it.
