    I only met Ronnie once. We met at our cousin Braden Mann's house. We sat and talked about everything. Then we all joined in and sang songs and Braden and Ronnie played their guitars. Ronnie was a very nice person. I wish I had got to know my cousins back there better. RIP Ronnie.

    Ronnie spent many a evening at our house when he lived in Lexington. He came for dinner several times a week and loved homemade gravy, so when I knew he was coming to visit I made gravy. Ronnie touched the lives of our granddaughters. They are 13 and 22 and was heart broken to know he has gone on. He had a heart of gold. He will be missed by out whole family. May he rest on peace. Until we meet again Ronnie keep singing.

    Heartfelt sympathy to the Mann family and his sweetheart Kay. I was blessed to know him through Kay and her son Ted. Great stories and always a funny joke to share. Grateful we were able to share Thanksgiving with him and hear a few more tales of Ronnie Mann. Much love to you all

    About My Dearest Ronnie. I am so thankful he came into my life. I always told him he woke me from a deep dark sleep 16 years after my husband passed away. We did so many things together... he introduced me to his wonderful family and friends in so many states as we traveled. Being around him and hearing him sing from the heart. I always said I would love to get up in his filing cabinet (his brain that is). He was so knowledgeable about so many topics. He never met a stranger. I loved doing videos from my phone of him singing. I told him he should have made a CD that so many at least his friends would care. He never did as his voice wasn’t as strong lately. But I have them and play them often. I had found him singing “Christmas in Dixie” that ironically he sang four years ago today. What a treasure!!! I never wanted to fall in love again after losing my husband of 34 1/2 years... Ronnie had had 42 years with his wife Jimilea. I will always love you Mr Ronnie Mann. Kay Marek

    I will always enjoy the memories of seeing cousin Ronnie and his family, at my mom's house during our yearly family reunion! He was a caring, and loving man who never ceased to regale everybody with his funny stories!
