My parents were friends with Bob’s parents Frank and Jean for years and the rest of the family. From 4H to fall fairs to Good Friday sales to him being there in times of tragedy for my family. Bob’s presence, calm nature and strength was always there for anyone in the community.
Bob, the Manning name will be carried well into the future from JR to Mr Sam.
Rest easy my friend, say hi to your parents for us and enjoy the view of your beautiful family from heaven. You will never be forgotten and your legacy and stories will be told forever

Lorraine Lewis
Dear Nancy, JR, Colleen and families,
Your dad worked with my family for years; you brought so many good laughs to the barn every morning and to the dinner table each day! We were all so delighted to be invited to your wedding and reception, none more than my little sister who really joined in with the glass clinking…only to learn that that tradition wasn’t just for the bride and groom!
Over the years, Ilderton Fair has become a heart-warming reunion for so many families. Those folks associated with the barn activities, especially the beef sections, 4-H shows, and the pie auction will dearly miss your presence and they way you made every one feel who greeted you. We hope your loss and grieving will be made better by recalling the many wonderful stories about your life partner and dad.

BOBBY!
WHO is going to be last at the fire!?
We will miss you buddy… and the community has lost a huge contributor. Trucking for kids and countless other great causes where you gave back.
A man’s legacy is in his family, and I can’t think of a family who is always there for a community event (most times with their sleeves rolled up), more than the Mannings.
Till we meet again Bobby: Be good and get the cart charged up… Em will want to go for a ride.
Love you
