Mr Manning was my coach and teacher during my time at DuBourg (2002 graduate). He was the best coach, teacher, and mentor. He gave me the confidence to succeed on the track as well as in the classroom and in life. Being a member of his team was one of my best high school memories. He was also a fantastic teacher! His history class was the best class I took at DB. I’m praying for your family during this time. Tom Manning was a inspiration to all and will be greatly missed!

I was so saddened to hear of Thomas Manning’s passing. He was my history teacher my junior year (2012 graduate). Every day before class he would give all the students fist bumps. One day I decided to make up a special handshake with him that we would do before every class. High School was a challenging time for me. Mr. Manning was one of the people at Bishop DuBourg that went above and beyond to make sure I was doing okay and always made me smile. I am grateful for the positive impact he made on my time at high school. I am so sorry for your loss.

Mr. Manning was my cross country coach at Bishop DuBourg. He inspired so many of his students not only during high school but throughout our lives. He was an incredible leader, role model, and support. I think of him every time I run, especially when I’m getting tired. Mr. Manning taught me to keep going! My prayers go out to his family as I can only imagine the pain they’re going through. The world is a much better place for having Mr. Manning in it, and we will never forget him or the lessons he taught us.

Teaching in the classroom next to Tom for several years gave me a privileged insight to a teacher dedicated to his profession and to his students. Before school and in between classes we could always have a moment of levity and support. Whether it was the way he related to students in a kind and sympathetic manner or the knowledge of his subject, he was a role model for all of us. Our prayers for Pam and his family.

MANNING FAMILY .. My condolences to you on the passing of your Father, Husband / Teacher / Coach / Counselor / Colleague / Neighbor / Friend.
Love is immortality. Love is one. Love is the whole. Love is an endless sea that you fall into. And once you fall into it, you can’t fall out.
All that we love deeply becomes a part of us. Your Father is gone from our sight, but never from our hearts. May the cherished memories of your Dad, and the love of family, continue to surround you and give you strength in the days and years ahead.
My thoughts and prayers are with you to assuage the grief of your family – BUT – Grief never ends .. it changes .. it’s a passage, not a place to stay. Grief is not a sign of weakness, nor a lack of Faith – It’s the price of Love …
May his memory be eternal.

To the Manning Family – I can’t tell you how sad I was when told of Tom’s passing – What a Great person – For me, Tom was a big part of the Kutis Girl’s Basketball Program – The practices in those hot gyms, the trips to Florida on those “broken down busses – The leadership & maturity he brought to the whole program – I may not have seen him much after the Kutis Program, but I feel good that because of the program, he found his “true” calling in life as a teacher, coach and mentor to so many students – Last, I was inspired by how great a husband and dad he was – I truly will never forget you Tom, I only hope that God let’s me join you and Ben someday, so we can coach Kutis basketball again –

To the Manning family. I did not see the obituary until I saw a note in the Bishop DuBourg alumni news. He helped coach my daughter in the Kutis basketball program.
I taught at St. Mary’s High school for 50 years and would often see Tom at events. Tom was so nice and was obviously loved by his students. Again so sorry for your loss and will pray for Tom and your family.
