Not sure what to say?

My father and Manny were the old pioneers of the industry, so I've known Manny since the 70s. He was a solid man, respectful, considerate and good to my father as a friend. Rest in peace Manny.

I was unaware of Mannys passing until today. As I have thought of him and his wife so very often over the years. Its is 7/3/20 as I write this. A year has past which I know from experience is so difficult.
Mr. Steinfeld served with my father Harvey Voss during WWII. They became friends and stayed in touch throughout the years. I met him once as a child when he came to our home for a visit while in Denver on business. I was grateful that my father had such a wonderful friend. In 2003 my...

Manny was a mentor to my husband for many years. He was a hero and innovator who paved the way for many young sales and design personnel who worked for Thonet and his other hospitality and office furniture companies. My husband, Bernie Lehrman, learned from him and developed a friendship that lasted many years, far beyond their working years together. Manny was a legend in our home and represented strength, courage, and the driving force behind the products that my husband sold. My...

I will never know another great man like my mentor and friend Manny. We met several times over the years at his and Fern's Palm Beach Boca home as I would bring apple strudel and just sit and talk business and life. I cherish his books and I am a better person for being his friend. Manny will be missed but I will keep him in my heart forever!
You had a great journey Manny and you left an incredible mark on so many!
With love,
Ron Katz





I read with great interest the story of your father Manfred. Being the son of a holocaust survivor from Germany I was so happy to hear of his success and his support of Jewish related charities. I loved the part that he would turn over chairs in restaurants to inspect their wear. May God bless his memory. He sounded like a wonderful human being.

Manny was a remarkable man and we were grateful to have known him. May his memory be a blessing. Love, Judy and Mark Weitzman

I met Manny when I was a junior officer at Continental Illinois National Bank in the 70s. He was an inspiration to all of us at the bank who assisted him with our banking services. Manny showed how important immigrants are to our country!

To the Steinfeld family, Manny was a special guy to me and I appreciate his genuineness (frankness) in conversations. I never left a conversation wondering how he really felt. His accomplishments in life and his generosity is a model to us all. He will be missed by the many people he touched in so many walks of life. Darryl Rosser
