Manny was a dear friend of mine through High School. We spent a lot of time together and I feel blessed to have had him in my life. He was one of the most generous people that I have ever known and his heart was big. He was a pillar of strength and courage for me and many others during those years in High School. Rest in the arms of Jesus now Manny and we will meet again in Heaven. God Bless.

I knew Manny in High School and he was a very good guy. In fact, when I joined Northbrook as a freshman, I basically knew no one. Manny reached out to me and was the very first person to be friendly. I will always remember that about him. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. I know Manny will be missed.

I"m so sorry to hear of the passing of your husband, Manny. I met Manny a few times when he would pick Casey up at Sunday School and he always had a smile on his face :) You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Oh, Shelly, since your call you haven't been out of my heart and my thoughts. Manny left you a wonderful legacy in memories and in the faces, ways and mannerisms of his beautiful children. Still I know you (and all of us) would rather have him, here and now. He was too young and this was too soon. With love and light, Julie and Stan

Dearest Shelly,
I heard the sad news and want you and your family to know that you have been in my prayers. I am very sorry for the loss of Manny. I hurt so deeply for you. Take comfort in how much he loved you and the children. There is no way to make the pain go away. In time it will lessen, but Manny will never be forgotten.
With much love,
