TERRENCE J. "TERRY" McMANAMON Obituary
TERRENCE J. “TERRY” McMANAMON, age 77, beloved husband of 51 years to the late Cynthia J. (nee Hahn); loving father of Ryan (Andrea), Sean (Nicole) and Colleen Ganor (Doug); proud Grandpa of Joseph, Ellen, Connor, Molly, Jack, Will and Nora; son of the late Patricia “Patsy” (nee Cahill) and Thomas F. McManamon, Sr.; dear brother of Thomas F., Jr. (Jackie), Timothy (Mary, deceased), Ted (Sandra), Tracy (Amy) and Todd (Chris); dear uncle, cousin and friend of many.
Terry passed away suddenly on March 29, 2025. He lived his whole life on the west side of Cleveland, 40 of those years on Edgecliff as the self-appointed mayor. He was a proud graduate of St. Edward High School and Miami University, where he met Cynthia. They married in 1970 and spent three years traveling the world before coming home to start a family. Terry was a great Dad, supportive, loving, full of ideas and always ready to fund a good time. He loved golfing, traveling, gambling, hosing surfaces and trashy TV shows. Most of all, he loved his family; Cynthia, whom he is now reunited with, and his kids and grandkids. Terry will be missed by so many, and we will all cherish the wonderful memories he left with us.
Relatives and friends are invited to meet for his Funeral Mass Saturday, April 5, St. Mark Church (15800 Montrose Ave.) at 10 A.M. Livestream link: https://www.facebook.com/people/St-Mark-Parish-Cleveland/100064404981103/ Friends may call at CHAMBERS FUNERAL HOME of CLEVELAND, 4420 ROCKY RIVER DR. AT PURITAS, FRIDAY 4-7 P.M.

It’s been almost a week and I’m still sorting this out. Terry was a boss, a mentor, but most importantly a friend. Words can’t really express the depth of our working and personal friendship. Way too many great memories to attempt to offer any single one in passing. Terry was one of those truly unique people you are fortunate enough to meet in your lifetime.

Terry introduced me to Little Anthony and the Imperials - we even saw them downtown one Sunday night- he also taught me to like Elvis ( under duress) but he won -

Friends since the early 60’s, then neighbors. Only wonderful memories. We reunited in 2022 when I drove through Cleveland on my way to Maine. We shared the loss of our spouses to ALS.p

My deepest sympathies to each of you. Your Dad was an incredible man who always brought a smile to my face & countless others. He was the life of the party honestly, in most cases, he was the party. So welcoming & kind. Here’s to endless card games & Birthday cakes at Midnight. He’ll always hold a special place in my heart.

Looking back on the time I worked with Terry and the memories made, it’s impossible not to smile. Every day was a little brighter because of Terry — his humor, his generosity, and the way he supported his team when facing the most challenging tasks. He had this incredible ability to turn a stressful day into one filled with laughter and learning. I walked away from every project not just with new skills, but with great memories, thanks to him. It wasn’t just about the work—it was about the people, and he made being part of the team a privilege. I’ll always be grateful for the good times, the lessons, and most of all, the friendship we built along the way. I will miss you dearly my friend.
Losing a brother is incredibly hard. My thoughts are with your family. I have many fond memories of our family parties and vacations at Cedar Point.
