Remster 24 #1 March 28, 2014 As some of you may have heard, Don Mann was killed in an accident on March 19 while falling trees in his home state of NM. Don was an awesome guy, always super friendly, even if his beer of choice was dubious to say the least (Bush!). John Verley is organizing an ashdive, followed by a memorial (ie, drinking at the prop) for April 12 at 3pm at SDAZ. If you knew Don, or would like to have one in his honor, please show up! Also, if you want information about the ashdive, please contact John at jwverley at gmail dot com I'm attaching a photo from 2004. Don is top row, 2nd from left.Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ultraplus 0 #6 April 15, 2014 So sorry to hear about Don's accident and his passing. I was just telling a friend last night what a smokin diver Don was. We were late divers together in the Eloy Pops world record attempts in 2012. Really wonderful person. So friendly and genuine. I was looking forward to seeing him in a few weeks out there when we try again. He will be missed. Beautiful send off!be safe and look out for eachother Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
