Kenneth Manley Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on May 24, 2009.

MANLEY, Kenneth Adams 81, of Waltham, passed to Spirit on May 18, after a long illness. Born in Brattleboro, VT, he is predeceased by his parents Florence (Adams) Manley and Robert Arthur Manley. Ken began his career in communications as a radio broadcaster in Bangor, ME. He went on to be a partner in KKM Advertising Agency in Boston, and then President of PK Productions/Creative Marketing Services. In that capacity, he wrote, recorded and produced many award winning commercials, including radio spots for Building 19, Snyder Leather and Bowl & Board. Ken also did many pro bono TV and radio spots for various local charities. Nine years ago, Ken became a Reiki Master Teacher and Aura photographer, conducting many seminars and teaching hundreds of students. Ken was greatly loved and respected by his many Reiki students, as well as his advertising and broadcasting colleagues. Ken leaves three children: Janice Manley of ME, Todd Manley of VT, Cynthia Linett of NH and a brother David Manley of NH. He also leaves his beloved partner of nine years and fellow Reiki Master Teacher, Robynn Stewart of Waltham, MA. A Memorial Service is being planned for the Fall.

Ken was a wonderful friend to our church and a blessing in all of our lives. Ken's continuing presence is felt by many as he works from the spirit side of life to continue his healing work. In Spirit, his sense of humor, his gracious presence and his generosity of spirit lives on.......
We are truly grateful for experiencing his spirit & great light on both the physical and spiritual planes.

Ken was my beloved life partner for nearly 9 years. We were totally connected emotionally, intellectually, creatively and spiritually. Together we founded Full Circle Aura, our Aura photography and Reiki practice. I will miss his earthly presence terribly, but know for sure that we will meet again. Ken's memorial service will be held on Sat., Oct. 3 at 1 PM at the Greater Boston Church of Spiritualism, 32 Church St.,
Watertown, MA 02472. Any donations in
Ken's memory may be made to the church.
Thank you all so much for your kind and loving words and prayers. They are greatly appreciated.

As a founder of Hanron Manley and Hall, Ken was my first employer when I moved to Boston. Over the years we shared many funny moments as well as a few sad ones. Ken was very creative, quick on the draw, never missing an opportunity to make you laugh. He was always the consumate professional. I will miss him .

Ken and I began our radio careers together in Bangor, Maine. He was a multi talented man. and a loyal friend for over 50 years. I will miss reminiscing with him about our adventures at Leland Powers and, the early days of working together in radio. We had lots to talk about, and lots to laugh about about!! Bon Voyage, old friend.
