Adam Michael Manchenton 8/30/73-02/15/22. Adam was preceded in death by his parents, Connie (Sears) and Mark Manchenton, grandparents Ruth & Robert Sears, Edward Manchenton, and cousin Veronica Gantt. Adam is survived by his siblings, Marcia and Ryan (Traci) Manchenton, nieces/nephews Kaylee, Ryan II, and Aubrie Manchenton, and Nicholaus Moore, grandmother Dorothy Manchenton, and many uncles, aunts, and cousins.
Adam grew up in Marana, AZ and attended Marana High School. He enjoyed sports and music. Growing up, Adam played baseball and wrestled. His favorite team was the Los Angeles Rams and he got to enjoy them winning the Super Bowl before his passing. He wrote short stories and songs, and played the guitar and drums, often "jamming out" with his nephews or friends. He was a jokester, always making jokes and puns, and was very quick witted, class clown throughout most of school. He will be remembered for his love of family and music, and his sense of humor and comedic timing.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks donations be made to National Alliance on Mental Illness, NAMIarizona.org. Adam suffered a traumatic brain injury after a severe car accident and lived with mental health issues after his injury.
Graveside services for Adam's Celebration of Life will be Friday October 28th, 2022 at 10 am at East Lawn Palms. Wear your favorite team or band shirts as we gather to celebrate and remember Adam.
