I have so many wonderful memories of times we spent together.  You will always have a place in my heart .Miss you Buddy

Today is the  anniversary of Manny's passing.  He was a great friend and just a wonderful all around great guy.  I hope he's hanging out with my beloved husband, Alfred E. Locascio.  Prayers to Maryanne and the entire family.

His Dad and then he was our landlord when we had our monument shop in the Bronx. Always a straight shooter, a gentleman. Rest in Peace.

A man of few words, until he had something to say. “Manny” Emanuel Ciminello, was one of the most thoughtful and generous people I have ever known. We only knew each other from his favorite local Italian restaurant, Pomodoro. He never failed to offer his friendship, a laugh, a glass of wine or whatever I was drinking. He shared his family and friends as freely as he did anything else and immediately and warmly made  you feel like one of them. Manny, you will be missed and remembered with all the heart, love and grace you deserve. I hope I can continue to share your memories with your family wherever and whenever our paths cross. 

God bless your memory,

Peter Jon Zimmerman 

Rest In Peace Manny you were one of a kind and always nice to me

Manny was a gentle giant, kind and loving. When I think of manny, I remember him sitting at Vinnys having lunch in his favorite spot. When I would visit my sisters, he would be there having lunch always happy and jolly. We will miss him. He will always live in our hearts. He loved his family and that was the most important thing to him. May he Rest In Peace. Love Matty and Bert

Knowing the Ciminello children and all that I have heard about their Dad I know that he is an amazing person. My deepest condolences go out to his family.

Back in the day  I would always see Mr. Cimenello in Joe Nina’s. The moment I would walk in you would know right away he was there. He just lit the place up with his smile and charisma. Always had a funny story to tell. Didn’t matter where I bumped into Manny, he always had that smile on his face. When I was younger and would see him on a job site, I had seen a different person. He was tough on the job. Being young it was hard to distinguish seeing the difference from job site to personal. I grew to understand the difference and why he became a very successful person. It taught me something but what I learned the most was Manny was a gentle, fun, loving person and I will always remember him for that. The Ciminello family are very blessed to have a man like that to lead there family. It’s clear the entire family inherited that beautiful personality. Our sincere condolences to Mrs. Ciminello and the entire family 💔🙏🏼
Love Chris & Hanane Todino  

Dear Maryanne , Manny , Maryanne, Salvatore and Tommy , your husband and father was a legend and will never be forgotten . He was good friend and good neighbor here at the Corniche condo . We will all miss his big personality and  the beautiful and the generous  person he was. 
May you all find comfort and peace at this time of sorrow .

Dear Maryanne and family. We are so sorry for your loss. Manny was always a gentleman and a good neighbor for over 50 years.  He will surely be missed. We will keep you all in our prayers and thoughts.

Virginia, Joe Dedona  & family

Dear  Manny and Family, 

So very sorry to learn of Manny's passing.  It was my great privilege and pleasure of knowing  him for over 30 years.  What started as a business relationship endured as a friendship.  
Manny was an astute businessman at ease in the boardroom or on a construction site.  Seeing him negotiate was a marvel. He approached things with wit, charm and a razor focus on a positive outcome. Early on it became clear that  Manny played chess while most were playing checkers. He saw the big picture and always saw the goal line.   It was always wise to be on his side of the table. 
Once Manny took your measure, if you were genuine and earnest, he became you friend, advisor and protector.  
He'd impart great knowledge with a sip of a cocktail and a wry grin.  Most memorable Manny-isms:
"Play the long game" 
"Triple net leases"
"Everything's negotiable"
"Never Pay Retail"
I shall miss our annual birthday calls, lunch at "his spot" and hearing of his latest escapades.  
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. 
Godspeed Manny.

To the Ciminello family I met Mr Ciminello once at Louie's did not have the pleasure of knowing him but I do know Manny Junior Sal and Tom and Maryann very well sorry for your loss love Mitchell and Joanne Mancini

Our deepest condolences RIP

Your dad will forever have a special place in my heart.  

Your farher was one of a kind. He was generous charismatic witty, ( just to name a few)  and had a smile that could light up a room. I will miss him dearly, but I am thankful that the memories i have I I will cherish forever.  My love to all   Xoxo  Juliane

Mar you will always be his little girl and he doesn’t want you to be sad !!!! This is not good- bye for sure!!! Be strong as he would want you to be and you will definitely see him again… send my condolences to your Mom  and brothers from me …. love you guys !!!!!!

I am so sorry. Uncle Manny was as much a father, uncle and family member as any of my own. Growing up I remember the get togethers and our family’s were always together. From when me and manny were in diapers, to high school proms with Manny and Maryanne to as recently as when uncle Manny would visit me at Trattoria 632 and always had a smile and fatherly wisdom to share. I will miss him and send my deepest condolences to his family. I love you all and will always be available  to share some stories about a man who left who left too soon and taught me how to be a better father, son, nephew and friend  I will miss him. . I hope I see you all soon.  Love JJ Savino. 

Mr. Ciminello was a kind, generous, fun loving person. He loved his family above anything else. He will be dearly missed by many.  RIP Mr. C 

Gina Mongelli

My thoughts and prayers go out to an amazing family that I consider an extension of my own. I remember growing up in the early years, always at the house which was carefully guarded by a leaning thinker smoking a cigarette at the front door....yes ...Mr. C.  Always with a smile!
Of course I can never forget the family  AC trips to Trump Castle. 
I always looked at and had the same respect for Mr C, , as I did my dad.  
They can now share a cocktail and of course a friendly game of Liars Poker together. 
RiP knowing you and Mrs C built an unbelievable empire, known as a Family!
Love Mike Mondrone

Dear Mary Ann and family my deepest condolences  for the loss of your “beloved Manny.”  He may be gone from your sight, but never from your hearts ♥️. May he Rest In Peace!  Manny will be dearly missed by  all 🙏 Mary Ann Lattinelli and family.

Sending our sincere condolences 💐 I’m beyond saddened and my heart breaks for you all. Mr Ciminello was one of a kind. No one word can describe him. He was kind, generous, and welcoming to name a few. I met Mr. C when I was in college with Maryanne and immediately felt like family. 
The picture above is a memory I look back on fondly.  Easter dinner together in 2016. We happen to both be in Disney and Mr C invited me and my daughter to join them so we would  eat with family on the holiday.  He was the best! ❤️

There are so many memories, it is impossible to
name just one. We will keep them in our hearts 
May the good Lord give you the strength to
Keep going.  I am sure he is showing them how 
To party in heaven 
Our deepest sympathy to all

Carol & Felix Petrillo and Family 

Manny was like a brother to me and my best friend for over 60 years. I have so many fond memories of our times together. He was truly a unique man...a man's man yet with a kind and sensitive side. He lived life to the fullest and his family always came first.I miss you my friend. I know you are in Heaven with our Lord.My deepest sympathy to the Ciminello family.

Dear Mrs. Ciminello Manny, Sal, Tommy and Maryanne please accept our  sincere condolences.
 Mr. Ciminello is a legend. May he rest in peace.
  

Sending you all my love and prayers at this very difficult time.  I have so many great memories of him growing up in Pelham, he always made me feel like part of the family.  
Mrs. C, Maryanne, Manny, Sal and Tommy, may all the beautiful memories you made together as a family bring you peace.  He will always be with you…he was one of a kind!

Maryanne-I was so sad to hear that your dad had passed. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I can’t tell you how fortunate I feel to have met your dad and had so much fun spending time with him at lunch last year….he is a total Legend!!  Godspeed Mr. Ciminello 

Manny was someone I feared and respected as a child and later in life when I got to know him loved and respected even more. I was lucky enough to grow up with all his children who I do not see as often as I like but still consider them family. Tommy I have known for close to 38 years now and as a childhood best friend. So I feel his pain as I lost my father already as well.  Knowing Mr. C he is probably at that black jack table in the sky already with a gray goose on the rocks by his side. He lived a life that we should all be able to and all be proud to say we knew him. 
Rest In Peace Mr C you have earned it. 
With love and respect, Mark Pastore 

My deepest sympathy to Maryanne and her family 
I will always remember how kind Manny was to me when my husband Ralph passed away many years ago.  He offered me his support in helping me through that very difficult time. I will never forget that. Rest In Peace Manny.
