Sorry we missed the funeral! Donna and I were on family vacation.
My love and support are always with you! My love for Manda is not even descriptive enough to express. She was always so loving and fun "all the time"!
I am always here for you!
Sincerely,

Our prayers are with the family at this time. We were so blessed to have Manda sing at our Wedding - 29 years ago. Manda was a good friend of my sister, Lorri.
One of the songs she sang was the Lord's prayer. Absoulutely beautiful, just like Manda. I recall that she taped the song during rehearsal so she could practice again prior to the wedding. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers - and will always have Manda in our fondest memories.

It is always so sad when a beautiful light goes out and seemingly endless darkness covers everything. But have faith that this too shall pass and joy will come in the morning light and enable family and friends to remember the light and joy that was Manda. God bless and comfort all.

You will really be missed by all those that loved you. Even though we haven't been in touch since High School. The loss touches me hard. I lost my husband last year, he was only 55, he had a massive heart attack I feel for the family. Such a tragic loss for you all.

Manda never met a stranger. She had a huge heart. She sang in my brother's funeral. I appreciated her generous & giving spirit.

I was deeply saddened to hear of the loss of Manda. She & I went to school together at Myrtle Elementary, Ashley Jr. High, & Hunter Huss. She was always upbeat & I truly cannot remember a time when she wasn't smiling. I have quite a few memories of her but one that stands out is when she won the softball throwing contest during field day at Myrtle. What an arm & what a throw. An early sign of her strength & the strong person she became. My deepest condolences to the entire family. ...
