I met Mr. John Mann,1989, in Rivera Beach, FL, and I immediately recognized him as one of my people. It was the way he talked and his manner of treating people. Sure enough, he was born along the Flint River in Montezuma, GA., sixty miles north of where I was born on the same river in Albany, GA. No, he was not a blood relative but his generosity expressed the heart of our common people. Besides the fact that he is the father of the love of my life, I am proud to have been his friend. In fact, in thirty-one years of knowing him, I never heard him say a mean word. Peace & Love to all of his family.
