Not sure what to say?

“Richie” was my Swimming mentor at TMR Boy Scout Camp and influenced me to become an active American Red Cross swimming and lifesaving instructor for many years.
I thank him and miss him dearly.

Hard to believe that five years have passed since we lost Pastor Manus. I remember fondly our conversations about many topics, when I was a graduate student at Texas A&M in the early 1990s. I shall always remember Pastor as one of my favorite people in my life.

I was thinking about Pastor Manus just the other day. He was one of my favorite people at Texas A&M when I was a student there. He always had time for you. Pastor Manus would always say just the right thing, no matter what your story, concern, worry, or success was. I still miss him a lot.

[Not yet Rev] Richie Manus, Camp Director at TMR Boy Scout Camp, 1967

Are there any photos of Richie I could view? I could also add a great photo of him when he was my Camp Director at Ten Mile River Boy Scout Camp in 1967. Thanks, Cliff Schwartz: [email protected]
Rich gave me a love of aquatics that lasted, and is still with me, all my life. I think of him every time I still swim.

I had the privilege of knowing Rich through scouting in Glendale, NY. A great guy with a very unique sense of humor. Rich and I along with our buddies sharing a "pitcher " on a Friday night was alway a time for laughter and a great time. Always, a friend.

Dear Jason (TAMU '96) and Vicki (Meehleib, UT '95) Awbrey -
My name is Cliff Schwartz. Pastor Richie Manus was my scoutmaster, my Waterfront Director, and my Camp Director at Boy Scout Camp in the 60's. I still miss him. Could you please send me the link with photos of him? Please send to [email protected].
Thanks,
Cliff

Is this the same Richie Manus who was a Waterfront Director and Camp Director at Ten Mile River Boy Scout Camp in the 60's?

We are saddened to hear yesterday of Pastor's passing. Prayers for peace for Alice and all of the Manus family. We are thankful for Pastor's guidance while we attended Immanuel in Barnhart, MO, and for confirming our two children. Pastor is in his eternal home.
