On a different note, I'll never forget his easy method of the tie-knot. Back in 1992 when I was just starting out in drum playing at church he found me by the men's room mirror struggling to make a tie know work. He asks, " Hey Dave, want me to show you the quick way" and he patiently showed me how to make a knot. I still use his tie knot method to this day. See you on the other side Brother Manny,
Dave.
