One MANS Opinion: Episode 237 – My Brother David

One MANS Opinion with Jeff Mans

My brother was a giant. Maybe not in stature, but in our family and to all who knew him, his kindness, warmth, and love meant everything. I have nor will I ever know a soul that had to endure more pain, ridicule, or harassment than my brother David. But for those who let him into our hearts, he was the kindest, most gentle ally we could ever want. I have been given many gifts in life, and I’ve never understood just why I was always so fortunate. As I’ve grown older, I’ve come to realize that much of what god has graced me with was some of what he took from my brother. As more time passed, I understood that most of my shortcomings were David’s strengths. We grew up together, we cared for each other, and we completed one another. I will miss him now forever. This episode is dedicated to the life and legacy of my brother, David Mans.
