Dear Manley familey, I am sorry to hear about the passing of your Husband and Father. I don't know how Andy was always able to keep that smile on his face when we were kids with all the crazy/stupid stuff we did. He always took the time to say hello and to ask about my parents.

Dear Fran, Sons John,Joe,Jim,Jerry,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you over the loss of your dear Dad and loving husband. After his passing,
we talked about the time he rebuilt the entire engine on his car. We were amazed every part was removed from under the hood of his car and Andy reassembled the entire engine and all the parts. Andy would turn the key and start the purr of the engine again.
It amazed Kevin & I how handy he was with cars. We all will remember his warm smile and wonderful sense of humor. When saying good bye to Andy you knew the words he would say to you
"All The Best!" Our Love and God's Blessings! Joan and Kevin
