David Lee and Tara Janel Manitsas

And the loving uncle of John Luke Manitsas

Just learned of Tara's death and wanted to say, I only knew her for a few hours during a Mental Health First Aid training, but she had an definite impact and I will never forget her.

Dave and Tara were blessed souls. They gave so unselfishly to all, without partiality. I spent quite a bit of time hearing about their family, the get-togethers and outings(who can forget Hawaii and Christmas 2012?; and I will never forget the unexpected injection of (sometimes dry) humor which Dave brought to situations. I hope his book of jokes will live on!

Tara was my therapist for two years and I could not have gotten through those years without her. She is the most caring, wonderful person you could have come across. She inspired me more than anyone ever has. My condolences go to the family for their tragic loss. Tara you will be missed more than words can describe...

We feel so blessed to have known Tara and David. We continue to pray for the entire family in this loss. These two have brought joy, happiness and life to so many people. They touched our family far beyone what anyone will ever know, but I plan to see them again some day when I reach my heavenly home. My family and I will never forget how much they have helped our family and so many others. Please know that they loved each and everyone of there family members and talked of all of you very...

I am so very sorry for your loss. There are no words....

John and the Manitsas family, my thoughts and prayers are with you!

To Angela, Loren and family,

My deepest sympathies, thoughts & prayers go out to you all during this time of loss.
