Jeff Manns- touching our hearts

I write, tears blinding the letters I push on this page. I write to be courageous. Inspirational. I write to inspire others with the same uplifting spirit that Jeff carried.
This page is not to mourn the loss, rather to encourage the abundant life that Jeff lived. 
He belonged! He lived out a dream that he fought so hard to accomplish.
He has a loving wife and two absolutely amazing young women that he was so blessed with. They looked to each other for support, for strength, and at times, motivation, to remember why and whom they lived.
Jeff had an incredible impact on so many of us. We are all truly blessed to share in his journey. Unfortunately, we did not get the time that so many of us had hope to share in.  With great sadness, Jeff passed away in Dallas from a massive heart attack just as he was getting ready to fly back home to his wife and children.  In all circumstances, we must let God be in control- for He is able to guide is down the best path.
I am asking for your trusted and blessed support in this time of grief and loss. I would like to encourage each of you whom Jeff has impacted. Not just through friendship, but through worship, music, and all his life-long encounters. I encourage your support to help out jeffs immediate family.: his beautiful wife and children. As unexpected as this is, so too is the financial heartache that comes with.
I hope to lift up your voices for that of his wife and children. All the support will be given to provide comfort in this time of loss.
Each day brings new life, new strength, new dreams and hope. May you find the courage, confidence and hope to reach out for your dreams. Jeff fought to live out his dreams- music! Let his spirit remind each of us to fight to continually follow our dreams.
To live his life. To live it with the wholeness and gratitude and trust. In the pain and the glory, the mess and the grace. In the sacred and desperation. This is the stuff of which real super heros are born! Jeff will always be my super hero!!
Tears shed for another person are not a sign of weakness. They are a sign of a pure heart.
Let us be remembered for the things we do. The things we do are the most important of all. They are more important than what we say or what we look like. The things we do outlast out mortality. Jeff will always be remembered for this things he would always be willing to do! He had an infectious heart, which blessed and encouraged so many of us!
May our lives and gentle spirit be evident to all that we are!
