CEO’s Fiancé Honors His Memory at Vigil
Heartbreaking photos show the fiancé of Beau Mann retracing what is believed to be his final steps before his mysterious death. Mann’s skeletal remains were found inside an abandoned apartment complex in April 2021, more than a year after he disappeared. His fiancé, Jason Abate, organized a vigil on Saturday where friends and family paid their respects at the site in Santa Monica, California where Mann’s body was discovered.
The Mysterious Disappearance
Questions surrounding the circumstances of Mann’s disappearance continue to haunt his family. Mann was last seen getting into an Uber outside his Los Angeles office on November 30, 2021. The CEO got into a car for a 30-minute ride after purchasing cleaning supplies and a bag of ice, which his family says was a sign he should have been heading home. However, he was instead dropped off at a rundown neighborhood in Santa Monica.
In Search of Answers
Mann’s cause of death remains a mystery, and his family hired a private investigator to try to find out what happened. The PI offered a theory of what could’ve led up to his death, but the family isn’t in total agreement with the conclusions. They hope Santa Monica Police Department’s investigation will lead to more answers.
Remembering Mann’s Legacy
Mann’s company, Sober Grid, is working to ensure his legacy lives on. Mann launched the app in 2015 with a mission to connect and motivate people fighting addiction struggles, and the app is said to have helped over 350,000 users. Regardless of the unknown details surrounding his death, Beau Mann’s legacy as a kind and compassionate person who dedicated his life to helping others through his meaningful app will not be forgotten.
