I am so sorry to have found out about Mr. Manson‘s passing away two weeks ago. I really wish I had gotten to meet him-I heard so much about him from my mother who got to meet him while he was staying with his son, Russell, in Atlantic City, New Jersey (United States). My mother, Carol, said he was one of the most thoughtful and welcoming people she had ever met. He cared about how I was doing, having been just released from the hospital though he had never met me. She enjoyed the time she got to spend talking with him, listening to him talk about family and hoped to meet and talk with him again. I regret being unable to travel, something I will always feel. Our prayers go out to the Manson family at this most difficult time. We are keeping you in our thoughts.

So sorry to hear of Rodger's passing. I probably only ever spoke with Rodger seven or eight times since I met him yet he made you feel you had been friends for many years- The most outgoing and friendly man I had ever met.
My condolences to Eileen and the family for the loss of this lovely man,
Gus (Munro)
