To say that Manny was an inspiration, great leader, scholar,and most of all, a great friend to those who had the pleasure and honor of knowing him, is an understatement. I learned a lot from him through the years and look back at my time spent with him with a feeling of great warmth. He was a true "mensch" in every sense. I'll miss you Manny, and thank you for all that you did. God bless....... JPA John Askildsen Millbrook, New York
