Obituary of Beverly J. Manning

On October 9th, 2022, Beverly June Manning, loving mother and grandmother, passed away at the age of 82 at Elderwood nursing home surrounded by her family. She was born March 19, 1940, in Lake Placid, NY the daughter of Olive (Winch) and Milford Maynard of Lake Placid. She was always the hardest worker and took pride in whatever it was she was doing, whether it be picking potatoes in her early childhood or housekeeping in her adult life. She had a love for all living creatures big or small. She loved her fur babies Falafel, Tobey, and willow. She always enjoyed watching her favorite tv show "Gunsmoke" with them by her side. She loved collecting elephants and Angel's knowing that one day the Angel's would come to take her home to be with the Lord. She was always the first one that her family could go to whenever they needed help or advice because they knew that she would be the one to empathize with them or give them the swift kick in the pants that they needed to hear. She was always telling jokes or funny stories and was the first one to liven up the room with her beautiful smile and positive energy. Beverly is survived by her daughters Lorraine, Charlotte (Brian) and Dawn, her grandchildren Ramsey and Kindsley, and her sisters Barbara, Greta, and Betty as well as many nephews and nieces. Beverly was predeceased by her parents and her sons Marvin Jr. and Nathan, as well as her sisters Alberta, Catherine, Eva, and Maris.
