Al Manning

 I found today that an old friend of Netwest, Al Manning, died in March 2023. Al was serving as county Rep in Haywood County when I became Program Coordinator in 2007. He was an active member and an active writer. He published some books, I remember, and one of them was very humorous. He and his wife moved to the flatlands a few years ago and he began working with writers in that area. We stayed in touch for a while, but eventually, I lost touch with Al. Al served on the Board of Trustees for the Network for many years. 

Ed Southern wrote a nice tribute to Al on the Network Blog.
