Mr. McManis was my teacher when attended Olive Branch High. I thought of him today and googled him. I remember when he got married. He had such a beautiful wife. She was also a teacher. I was sorry to read that they have both have passed on. He was my favorite teacher. R.I.P. Mr. McManis.

Mr. Mac was one of the greatest teachers I ever had. We had so much fun in 7th and 8th grade. He made learning so exciting, you didn't know you were learning. He taught us lessons of life also and how to treat others with respect and kindness. Your Mother and Father were wonderful friends to my mom. You all will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Lessie Hoback Bailey

Mac is greatly missed! I remember all the great times we had at the bowling alley with him. He always had words of encouragement and no matter how bad I bowled, he always supported my efforts. He was most elated when you all started bowling. I remember how He beamed with excitement to see how well you all picked up the sport that he loves so much! And Yogi, when you bowled that 316, he would not stop poking his chest out. I bet you right now, he is giving instructions to everyone in Heaven as to how the sport is played.
I miss the Yang Yang conversations that I used to have with him and all the little things that he did that made a difference in my life. Mac is truly ONE of the BEST MEN that God created. He will always have a special place in my heart and I will forever love him.
I pray that God continue to bestow heavenly blessings upon you and your family.
