William "Bill" Manske

Bill and I meet in Jr high and stayed friends through the eighties but drifted apart after that. Bill had a great since of humor and we had many good times together. I know he had many health issues and when I did run into him he always seemed upbeat and and didn't let anything get him down. My sympathy to Amber, Lori and family.

Bill your smile and laughter is what I do remember growing up with you and our family The Yaktus clan. I remember fun times then. My sympathy goes out to all who knew him, and especially to his sister Lori for the love of a sibling. God Bless Love Kelly

To Amber and family, I was sorry to hear about Bill passing. He went through a lot with health issues during his life, but he always was very friendly. It was a pleasure working with you and Dad on your construction projects. More recently during his walks, Bill would stop at my office and say hello. I will miss that, but my memories of Bill will live on.

Bill was my first boss at the Daily Citizen, hired me in 1983! When he came back to work for Citizen we talked often. He was always talking about his daughter. I saw him several times in the last month or so at Jimmy Johns. Always a smile on his face. Had a good chat with him.
Deepest sympathy to all.

I'm an extremely sadden for the loss of your Dad, Brother, Uncle and all others!! He was a great guy!! Prayers to him and your family!!!

Bill and I worked together at the Daily Citizen for many years. Even after we were gone from there he remembered me and called me by name when we met in public or the store. He was so proud of his daughter and I would make sure to ask how she was doing.

To Bill's Family: Please accept my condolences and prayers regarding Bill. What a great guy! We worked together at Citizen/Conley/J.B. Kenehan for a number of years. Always enjoyed talking rock music with him. We liked alot of the same groups. God's blessings to Bill and his family.
