Harold “Hal” Frank Manning, 84, of Suwanee, Georgia, passed away on January 10, 2021, in Lawrenceville, Georgia due to cardiac and respiratory issues.
Harold was born in Washington, DC on October 11, 1936.
He attended Hyattsville High School in Maryland, after which he enlisted in the US Marine Corp. After serving his country and being honorably discharged from the Marine Corp, he began working in the printing industry, having retired from IBM and later from Standard Register. Being the hard-working man he was, Harold continued to work in the printing industry with Central States Business Forms in Suwanee, Georgia, where he was still employed. Harold was a member of Ivy Creek Baptist Church in Buford, Georgia. Harold never met a stranger; always having a kind word and a smile. He enjoyed working in the yard, watching football, especially the Atlanta Falcons, and he loved attending Gwinnett and Atlanta Braves games with his son, Jason.
Harold was a devoted husband and took great pride in caring for his wife, Mildred. He was the most loving dad and a doting “Pap Pap” to his grandchildren, but most of all he was a man of God and loved the Lord with all of his heart. He was so proud to have served his country as a Marine, having lived up to that pledge not only while serving his country but also while guiding and serving his family and the Lord, always faithful, always loyal. He never ended a prayer without including “and Lord watch over all the men and women in the military, wherever they may serve.” Semper Fi
Harold is preceded in death by his mother and father, Harold R. and Elizabeth Price Manning, sister and brother-in-law, Ruth Louise Penn (Steve), sister, Betty Ann Harper, brother-in-law, Henry Cook, sister-in-law, Judy Cook, and grandson, Michael Manning.
