Manny was one of the most loving friends that I have ever had. We went to high school together and continued our friendship working together at Connecticut National Bank. His kindness, warmth and true Christian Spirit (as well as his sister Mary) will always be fondly remembered.

Dear Ms. Cook,
We extend our sincere condolences in the passing of your brother, Manny. We are both retired Bridgeport Police Officers. We will always remember Manny's smile, his kindness and his friendly, though, always professional demeanor. He was a truly wonderful person. Everyone at the Police Department loved him. He will be remembered always, with fondness. It was a pleasure and honor to have known him. May he rest in peace.
God bless,
Jim and Weeze

I want to express my sorrow at the sad news at the death of Manny. Manny was such a special person that no words are really adequate. He brought pleasure to everyone that knew him and he will be sadly missed. He was a friendly face and a voice of reason. We will meet again. My deepest sympathy to his family and friends.

Rather than mourn the absence of the flame, let's calibrate how brightly it glowed.
You brought light into so many lives, I'm sure you'll shine just as bright in heaven.

I met Manney through Linda Lindquist more than 30 years ago. I liked him immediately, he came over my house with Linda a few time and I so enjoyed being in his company. Manney was a wonderful person, he is someone I will never forget. It was my pleasure to know him. We will all meet again in heaven.
