It is with heavy hearts that we share the sad news of the passing of the beloved Laith Joseph Manni.
Cherished and devoted husband of Suhair Katoola Manni for 31 years.

Brandon, Brenda, Dylan, and Destiny.
He loved and adored his wife and children dearly and went above and beyond for them. He gave joy, kindness, and unconditional love to his family and loved ones. He treasured spending time with his family and friends each and every single day. He enjoyed the Christmas season filled with blue birds, cardinals, Christmas music and the joyful spirit.
Though we feel the deep pain of his absence, we hold onto the peace knowing he is walking with the Lord and in God's hands.
He will be deeply missed by his family and friends.
May he Rest in Peace.

I am sooooo sad about the lost of Mr Lee but I called him Mr Smell Good because he was always dressed and smelling good ever time I saw him I moved to Allen pk 7 yrs ago and from the time I walked in his store I felt a good spirit with him I use to visit him and his family at the store we always laughed ,talked and listen to the music. He was a Wonderful guy I give my Prayers and Deepest sympathy to his Beautiful wife and children...I will be seeing you again in Heaven oneday but until then always remember you are going to be Deeply Missed.

My heartfelt condolences to the Manni family. I´ve been visiting Lee´s store for many years and I´ll continue to do so. Lee was truly one of the kindest souls. When my daughter was7, she´d stop in for a free lollipop from him. She´s 27 now, and my son has continued that sweet tradition.
We will miss him so much. It won´t be the same without his warm presence, but I truly hope his family carries on the beautiful legacy he built. Rest in peace Lee and sending prayers to his family!

We are deeply saddened to hear about Lee´s passing.For over 20 yrs, we´ve been visiting his store, and in the time he became more than just a familiar face, he became a dear friend.
He always had my lotto tickets ready at times, greeted me with such kindness and grace.Lee was truly a man of heart and good spirit! I believe the Lord has called him to rest and he has now received his angel wings.
He brought light to so many lives, and that light will continue to shine through the memories we hold.
I pray that God wraps his family in comfort and heals their broken hearts.
May they feel Lee´s love in their dreams and know that his soul lives on in peace. Until we meet again, my friend, rest in God´s eternal embrace.

So sorry for your loss. Lee was a very nice and considerate person. I always enjoyed walking into the store and hearing him call out my name from behind the glass. He will definitely be missed.
