1939 – 2017

It is with great sadness we announce the peacefully passing of Robert Keith Manning, beloved Husband, Dad, Grandpa, Brother, Uncle and friend to so many. He left us on Saturday, February 25th, after a courageous fight.
Keith was born on October 24, 1939 in Manitou, Manitoba but grew up in Pilot Mound and Crystal City. He moved to Kamloops, BC in the 1960’s where he worked 33 years at Weyerhaeuser. Keith was an active gardener, landscaper, member of the Kinsmen Club, devoted friend, family member and a very avid lotto player. Keith’s legacy was his devotion to Family. He raised two sets of kids and then doted on his grand kids. He remained committed to ensuring the well-being of all family members over the years, especially his wife Kathy.
Whether you knew Keith for a moment or a lifetime he would’ve made you smile and laugh no matter the situation. He will forever be in our hearts and dearly missed.
Keith was predeceased by his sister Fay and son Cole. He leaves behind his beloved wife of 36 years Kathy, his children – Dean, Kevin (Kathy), Lorena (Andy), Corey, his sisters Bernice (Fred), Gail (Bill), and brother in-law Keith, the grandchildren Kaila (James), Krista (Craig), Robyn (Tony), Keenan, Keanna and a great-granddaughter Aubree Anne, and had a great-grandson on his way, which made him very happy, and numerous sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law, nieces and nephews.
There will be a Celebration of Life held at a later date; details will follow when the plans are in place.
