Clara Grecco Manson

Clara Grecco Manson, 88, passed away peacefully on January 11, 2025, surrounded by her loving family. Born on August 19, 1936, in the Bronx, New York, Clara lived a life filled with love, devotion, and service. She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who will be deeply missed.

Clara dedicated her career to serving others, beginning as a secretary at New York Hospital. In 1985, she relocated to Sarasota, where she continued her career at Doctors Hospital. Even after retiring, she remained an integral part of the hospital, volunteering her time until her passing. She was a member of Incarnation Catholic Church where she volunteered and was active in the Parish Woman's Club.

Clara is survived by her husband Charles "Bud" Manson. Her three children: Mary Jean Grecco, Anthony Grecco and his wife Kathy, and, Frankie Grecco and his wife Jeanette. Her nine grandchildren: Angela, Anthony, Frankie, Ryan, Eric, Sean, Anthony Francis, Nicholas, and Mariclare and four great-grandchildren: Sophia, Ryder, Gia, and Little Frankie.

Beyond her immediate family, Clara touched the lives of countless others, including a wide circle of family and friends. Her legacy of love and resilience will endure for generations to come. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered, but we know she is with the Lord and dancing in the sky.
