She is survived by son Bob (Linda), Daughter Karen (Paul), Grandchildren, Amy (Michael), Rebecca (Rocco), Bob (Marisa) and Ellyse (Pete).

My deepest sympathy to Bob and his sister Karen in the loss of your dear Mom. She was a wonderful lady and I have many memories of her growing up in Riverside Park. Rest in Peace Mrs. Manz. 🙏🙏
