Pop-Pop, here's my little moment to speak to you in Heaven, I'll never forget all the memories I have with you, the times you made me laugh from your funny stories in the past, the times we cried together, all the linguine and clams mommy made for us, all the card games you TRIED to teach me, your Jesus plaque that you made for all of us grandkids and all the times you slipped me some good advice on how to deal with my parents...you're sweet soul and kind heart will be remembered forever. I will always have a vivid memory our times together and your house on Rising Sun Avenue. I love you Pop-Pop, say hi to grandmom for me. Miss you more than you know!!

Your Dad was a good friend. He was my partner for many years at the
Sheriff's Dept. We had a lot of laughs together on and off the job.
I will miss him but I will cherish all the good times we had together.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to
all the McManus family.

Your Dad was a good man with a big heart full of love for his family. He was witty and you just knew if he teased you, he liked you. For his children and friends he's left many memories to cherish.
