These past 4 months were filled with dancing and laughter, but also sadness for Manny's suffering with his pancreatic cancer. He was a strong and brave man who fought to the end. May he Rest In Peace and dance with joy and laughter again in heaven!

Manny was a very good friend of mine. We do flea marketing together back in the early 90's. We would see each other at McDonald's. He was always a burst of sunshine and fun to be with. My husband and I will miss his outgoing personality and the enjoyment he always brought to us. He loved his family and was proud to talk about them to everyone. Rest in peace, Manny.

I've known Manny for over 30 years and knew him to be an energetic, lovable, kind, funny, dancing, little bit crazy guy who loved everybody and loved his garden, family and friends. When I was around him I always smiled and this picture of him is how I always remember him, smiling! RIP Manny, you will be missed.

We give thanks forthe life of Manny DiFranco. He will be missed for his inspiration,faith,survival,friendship and his Love of people, and of course- music and dancing.
The Wayne Tomsic Combo enjoyed performing for Manny many requests, especially his favorite-
Zora Je'..THE DAWN IS BREAKING, every gig we would hear Manny recite- I'm Waiting.!!! Which was our cue..Manny appreciated ALL GODS GIFTS AND GOALS.
Manny will be waiting awhile for our beloved music, but ALL of us are comforted to know, He will be waiting to greet us as OUR Dawn Is Breaking.
Wait in Peace, Pray for Us.
Wayne Tomsic, Joe Reboudo, Raymond M.Klimczuk XO XO XO
