Obituary published on Legacy.com by Brandon G. Thompson Funeral Home - Hammond on Dec. 19, 2025.
Peter Jacob Manning, at the age of 68, passed away surrounded by his loving family on December 18, 2025. The world lost a beautiful, goofy, and loving soul today. He was so down to Earth and easy to talk to, the love he had for his family shined through him and he was a great man. His legacy and love will live on in all the people he loved.

Long Live our Hero Spiderman!

Peter is survived by his loving wife of 53 years, Idamae L. Manning; daughters, Mende E. Manning (Trey) and Crystal L. Manning (Amy); grandchildren, Madison M. Stortz (Zach) and Zamie Stortz; uncle, Lavance Oubre "Uncle Jr." (Bill); nephew, Russell Lala (Cassaundra); numerous nieces, nephews, and brothers-in-law; close friends, Rhonda Rushing and David Hill.

Peter is preceded in death by his parents William Patrick Manning, Jr. and Ernestine Oubre Manning; and maternal and paternal grandparents.

The family would love to express their gratitude to the friends and family that helped us through hard times and are always there for us in our time of need.

A special thanks to the nurses and doctors at St. Tammany Ochsner MD Anderson Cancer Center for the care given to Peter.
