RIP: Wesley Ward Manning

[cblocal]

This man was not a fisherman but a good friend of mine. He was a good friend, great friend, wonderful father, and an excellant grand father. He died in a plane crash yesterday in NC. On the way down he was headed towards a group of kids and instead of pulling the chute he steered the plane away from them. I could go on and on about this man but I will stop now.

Ward thank you for being my friend.

Sincerely,
Ryan Powell
