Mansel and Maxine lived on Winter St. when I moved there as a newborn, and they were there when I left home to make my way in the world. They were still there when I came back.
Neighbors like them are hard to find these days. They are both missed.

I grew up on Winter Street, with Mansel and Maxine. Sorry to hear of his passing, but I am quite sure he is now reunited with Maxine. And that is a very comforting thought to me. My condolences to Mansel's family. I am sure he and Maxine are now at peace, together.

I grew up on the same street, a few houses down from Mansel. He was always a very industrious, busy man, hard working and friendly with all the neighbors. My family have all known him and his wife, Maxine (who had passed away prior) for years. I remember he loved working in his yard and produced a beautiful garden that flourished and grew over the years. Condolences to his family, friends and his close neighbors who looked after him like family. I know he will be greatly missed.

I have known Mansel quite literally all my life. My grandparents lived next door to him on Winter Street. He was a wonderful friend of the family. My condolences to friends and family. He will be missed.
