Manuel served his country during the Vietnam War. This Hero made it home and began to build his life. He met his wife Angelica, and together they had 3 children. Manuel was a hard worker. He worked for the Aldine District. Once he retired he still kept busy by making sure his lawn was always in tip top shape. Another passion of Manuel was sports. He would love to watch and discuss sports. Ultimately, his family was his pride and joy, and he always made sure they were well taken care of. He will be missed dearly by his family but will always remain in their hearts.
