Harvey Manley Obituary
Candor - Harvey Manley who was the Honorary "Mayor of Candor" passed away on June 15, 2019. Harvey taught the people who were close to him the meaning of being accepted. Not by his grand gestures but by knowing people and accepting them for who they were. He changed the minds of people who met him to understand that people with disabilities are wonderful people to know and be around. Harvey loved his family and friends and took pride in the fact that he was loved by many. In his last days he had so much love around him with family and friends that he peacefully went to Heaven knowing that life is full of love. Harvey lived his life to the fullest and made wonderful friends along his journey. Harvey would like to remind everyone that a purple hat, chocolate ice cream, and people to love are all you really need in this life.
Harvey was predeceased by his adoring mother and father, Josephine and Harold (Pee Wee) Manley, His sister and brother in law, Beverly and Bill Ely, His nephew, Louis Ely and special niece, Sheri Balschweit, and his great friend George Strednack. He is survived by many nephew's and nieces's and great nephews and nieces and treasured friend, Claudia Strednack. Harvey's family would like to thank the many wonderful caregivers who cared for Harvey over the years especially, Dina and Kurt VonWeinstein. Harvey loved Dina, Kurt, Eric and Sam and loved being around them. He always knew that he was part of their family and they would not have it any other way. Harvey became close to his Care Manager, Sheri Mayer, in his last few years and he knew that she was always there for him.

Harvey was one young man that could never be forgotten . He would come into my dad's gas station every day to get those "siderettes" as he called them. Laugh and tease and pick ..won't forget that bike with steel tires of his either. We could always hear him coming. Dad really enjoyed Harvey and was so good to him at Don's Esso/ Amoco.
