McManus Family,

"Big Mike" was one of my favorite people growing up. He was always so generous and somehow managed to improve the mood of every situation. I personally will always be grateful for the summer jobs, baseball tips, and laughs that he gave me. I can still picture him playing trivial pursuit or cards and having the whole room laughing. I feel lucky to have known him, and I'll never forget his kindness.

You're all in my thoughts and prayers.

I remember:

Big Chief Wahoo,

An open, honest face in the window of a '52 Chevy, 40 years ago.

God bless you Mike, and bless and comfort your family. I'm sure you were as good a man as I expected you'd be.

Howard--class of '67--Wish I could ride shotgun in that Chevy one last time.

McManus Family -

I was shocked to read of Mike's passing. I have great memories of him as a member of the YMCA Camp Sherwin Board of Advisors and all of the help he gave Ken and me during our time as Directors of the Camp. He will be missed greatly by all those he touched.

McManus family,

I'm very sorry to hear of your loss. I have fond memories of Mike senior. The steeler games he took me to and the job he gave me for a summer during school. He was always very generous.
