My heart goes out to this family. They have been a blessing to my life. I remember Christmas plays at our church (Sartain Springs) years ago when Charles portrayed JESUS. He did such a fine job. Lean on God in your hour of grief. Love and prayers to you all.

The measure of a man:"not how did he die" but "how did he live", not "what did he gain" but"what did he give". Charles Manning lived fully and gave more than he took. He will be missed. Our condolences to his family for their loss.

We are deeply saddened to hear this, so it brings about memories of days gone by; high school, masonry jobs, meat processing. Prayers to all the family.
