David, I recall vividly and with happiness the time that I spent visiting your parents' farm and remember thinking that your Dad's face was one of the only other faces that I thought as warm and friendly as my own Dad's. Your father became my life long reference for what it was to be a farmer. And, knowing Uncle Ronnie and being at his farm helped me develop an understanding of where my food came from and who it was that grew it for me. And, I say this without exaggeration, each season when I cook my first cob of corn I think of your Dad and Mom...and their reminder that a fresh cob needs only to be cooked for 3 minutes.
I am truly sorry for your loss, David. Like you, I can see clearly that he and your Mom are together now...
We're so glad Jack got to know his 'Big Papa'... And I'm grateful that I got to be his 'little sprout.' We will miss you Grandpa Manz. Thank you for many stories, for always being interested in the many twists and turns in my life and for some truly hilarious cards. You were one of a kind.
We will miss our Uncle Ronnie. We spent many hours with Aunt Marge & Uncle Ronnie @ their farm. We visited with him these last 16 years as often as we could & enjoyed these visits very much. Much sympathy to David,Sue & family.
We will miss our dear Uncle Ronnie, his smile , his sense of humour, his anecdotes from the past, and his love of family and their visits. REST IN PEACE WITH THOSE GONE BEFORE...
To the family of a dear, wonderful man, Ron Manz. He truly was a gentle-man, just like my dad. Dad & Ron became great friends when they both resided at the apartments. After Dad passed in 2006, we still were able to see Ron at least 2x a year as he was also a customer of ours. We would have nice chats when he dropped into the office & we will miss seeing him. Keep the memories alive and he will be with you always!
