I walked into your AP Physics I class with thoughts of hopefully going to some college, I walked out of your AP Physics II class MIT bound. I owe you too much Debbie.

I had Maner my sophomore and senior year, for both chemistry and AP EnvSci. She helped ignite my passion for wanting to protect the earth every A day, but it's her pre-AP chemistry class that, 11 years ago, has made the biggest difference in every day life. Maner, I'm grateful you were always on board with our practical jokes, but I'm more grateful that you were someone I could talk to about climate change and nuclear energy. You will never be forgotten.

Mrs. Maner was one of my favorite teachers to have. I always knew that it would never be a dull moment. I had the pleasure of going to San Antonio for TAFE, with her and 3 other classmates. I truly enjoyed the experience and started to consider minoring in education. There were be NEVER be anyone like Mrs. Maner. My thoughts and prayers are with her family right now.

My thoughts and prayers are with Mrs. Maner's family. Mrs. Maner was one of the most inspirational teachers I have ever had the privilege of knowing. I remember her voice, her lectures, her demonstrations, and her enthusiasm so vividly. More than anyone else, she convinced me not to settle in life -- that I could and should both a humanist and a physician. Mrs. Maner loved everyone she encountered and was equally beloved by everyone she affected. I will miss her dearly.

Deb, you were an inspiration not just to your students at BA, but to your colleagues and everyone who knew you. Your passion and dedication helped me understand how much a teacher can truly affect the lives of those that they serve, and made me a better professional because of it. I will miss you dearly as the amazing teacher down the hall, colleague that I was fortunate enough to learn from and work with, and above all else I will miss my friend.

I knew her as Ms. Haddad, and she was a lover of science. She brought wallflowers out of the background, and I don't know a soul who didn't love her to pieces. Gone too soon.

Ms. Maner was an amazing woman. Her lectures are still vivid in my memory. I discovered I was good at science in her class. She truly elevated the standards of teaching and personal growth. Greatly missing one incredible teacher and woman.

My dear beloved long time friend and summer travel companion is at peace now. In this life she gave of herself constantly without ever thinking of herself. The lives she touched will be her legacy. The integrity with which she approached life was above reproach, 
The many trips we made together will forever be my special memoirs. There were not many US or Canadian destinations that were left for us to explore.  We had planned to revisit one of her favorite spots on the coastline of Oregon this summer. 
Sleep in peace my dear Perpetua.
Love Patelina

My prayers will be with your family during this time.  Mrs. Maner was a special member of the BA family and will be missed by all.

"Oh, my word!" - Deborah's most frequently used phrase. Mrs. Maner was the best at Chem. It was her intense passion for the subject that inspired me to pursue Chemistry in college. There must be some kind of chemical emergency in Heaven because she truly was taken too soon. I'm sure I can say confidently that she will be missed by every student she ever taught. May she rest in peace.

Wow Mrs. Maner words cannot express the pain I'm feeling right now. It just does not seem real but what I do know is that God makes no mistakes and he has certainly called an Angel home. You can rest easy now. I will forever cherish the memories we made together and there are certainly a lot to remember. Although you were at Bryan Adams we always managed to keep in touch. RIP Angel gone but never forgotten.Take your wings and fly high continue to watch over your TAG family your presence will always be felt.

Ms Manet was one of the most caring and dedicated teachers I ever knew.  Her love for science, and for her students was inspiring.  A very special person!

Maner helped a young science nerd find  an even greater love for the field. Loved every minute!
