My prayers are with you , Frankie and all of your family.   May God Bless you all.  

We have been praying for all of you ever since we learned
of Manley's accident and death.  We are so thankful for
being a part of his and your family's life.  Manley ministered
so much to Bill and was always ready to share with him. 
Bert in these last 10 years has been such a blessing to us at
Beaufort, SC, and now too even after moving to NC coast.
Carolyn, Marie, Allen, & Paul had the privilege of being in
youth at DBC with Bert and Christy.  We were so thankful to
be a part of their lives.  Frankie's wonderful encouraging smile
has always ministered to Carolyn.  Rest in God's Word as you
grieve.  He is Who brings us through.  Love you all.  11 Cor 1:3--6

Manley,  gonna miss you my friend.  I enjoyed our visits, talking politics,  getting advice on how to fix stuff, recipes, watching Jerry Springer....always enjoyed your company.  Rest easy my friend!

Manley was like a second dad to me since highschool.  Always willing to help anyone who needed it. He had the biggest heart and he loved his family so much . He was very devoted and was so very smart and faithful. I will miss him greatly and I will always be here for his daughter 
( my best friend) and wife. ( My second mom). . . Rest in peace love. We all love you and we know you are here watching over us no matter where you are. I love you Dad. Miss you so much. 

Manley was the single most selfless person I could have had the privilege of meeting. He was a family patriarch, and has left his footprint on all of our lives. There was never a time or place that was inconvenient nor a person that wasn't deserving of his presence. I suppose at his roots, Manley was his brothers keeper!
I know I can speak on behalf of everyone that knew him in saying, that he has certainly been mine at one time or another.

A true standard of what a man should aspire to be in life!
You will be missed!


To Frankie, Christy, Bert, Grace and Ann----We are family, It seems We only come together when We lose a family member. Manley was a few years younger than some of us. I can say that anything I have ever heard about Manley was good. He was loved by family and friends. I did have a few moments with Him at Calvin's funeral.
Just remember , saved people will see each other again in the glory land. John 14:2  

I remember Manley being the one to pray at all the family get together.  And I always liked his beard. That's why I grew mine. He will be missed. Till we meet again.

I remember when I went up there to help him fix his 18 wheeler. He taught me a lot. He told me don't worry about what other people think. And don't be afraid to do anything. Because of him that's where my company is today I use that philosophy.  Always listen to a wiseman. Which is what he was.

He will be missed.

Love Carter, Bambic, & Edington Family.

When I married into the Eudy family in 1992, they immediately became my family. Frankie & Manley we’re no exception. 
One of my earliest memories was Manley coming to our home to install our washer/dryer.  From that moment on, I would look forward to poker games at the holidays, and bear hugs from Manley! His hugs were so special that my daughter Abby would also look forward to them. He was a sweetheart!!  
I am so glad I saw him earlier this year at Hunter’s wedding. 
RIP Manley! Watch over us and know you will be missed very much!! 💙💜💙💜
Love always, Lisa

I loved Manley DuBose. I had the honor of being the family pastor at Denver Baptist Church. Manley was a gentle, humble man who loved the Lord. I look forward to seeing him in heaven. May God bless Frankie and the family. You are in my prayers.

Pastor Bill Bigham

Joel and I met Manley through work at YRC.  He came to the house once and helped Joel do some work on our Jeep and then had lunch with us.  He was a very nice man who spoke so lovingly about his wife Frankie, and his family, who we unfortunately never got to meet.  He was a good man and will be missed by many I am sure.  Rest In Peace Brother Manley, your work on earth is done 🙏

When you lose someone you love, you gain an angel you know. Rest easy

First time I ever met Manley DuBose he welcomed me to the family with open arms. Literally. He never felled to give me a hug every time I got to see him. He always had a smile on his face and always found the joy in the little things. He was always there when family called on him such a great role model… & I always loved he always made sure his swimming pool was ready every summer for family time. We all would sit and talk for hours and eat watermelon all the way till the sun was setting. This is not a good bye but only a see you later. Rest easy.

I can't remember what we were fixing. But something had broke and he turned to me and said why did you do that. Then I said that wasn't me. The lesson he taught me was always blame  the person next to you, and I have always keep that with me and that is a  memory I will always  keep with me.

Uncle Manley, There’s so much to say! i was apart of your family for going on 8 years and i’ve got to say, it didn’t matter what time of day or night if i needed something or just needed to talk you was there! Not just for me but for everyone. I would message you or Frankie from time to time just to check and see how y’all was doing. Never did y’all make me feel unwelcome or like a was bothering  y’all and that really meant a lot! I hadn’t talked to y’all in quite some time, i messaged on August 20th and asked you to give me a call and you did. That  evening you was at my grandmas working on her washer machine, you ordered the part and came to my grandmas the 29th and fixed the washer machine. You would drop everything you was doing to lend a helping hand and not ask for anything in return! The world has truly lost a great man!!! i will always remember the 1992 Honda Accord(that was pepto bismol pink) that you sold me. It was my very first car! Thank you for all you ever done for me!!!  Also i will keep my promise i made you when you were over at my grandmas loving on my kids, i told you i would get them by there to see aunt Frankie, and that’s on my to do list!                        ~Love Tiffany and family 

I remember Manley as being very sweet and fun loving man. He liked to pick with you if you were his friend. He always brought us cantaloupe and watermelons to the pool. And margaritas too of course. I loved the relationship between him and Frankie. He will be greatly missed.

Love yalls crazy girl Danna

I remember u could never get away without a hug. And he always was there when u needed anything. He was a jack of all trades. I talked to him on Thursday b4 his passing. I had broken down and my 1st thought was to call Manley he would know what to do. Frankie and Joyce where there and we waited for him to come. But in the end he couldn't find a trailer to fit my Tahoe. So he just talked to me over the phone until Michael got there to help. He wouldn't hang up until he know I was able to get home. He will be missed. Now who u gonna call. Ghost Buster is gone. Love u aunt Frankie.

Met Manley through his brother Calvin and became good friends right away..
Spent a lot of time with Manley in my salvage yard..
He could fix anything and never would take money so we worked it out with parts a lot of the time,probably the most straight up guy I've ever known..
Manley was always happy and was a pleasure to see him walk in,will miss those talks we had and just hanging out in the junkyard...
Our thoughts & prayers will be with the family for this tragic loss...
Heaven gained a great man this week..
RIP my brother,see you again one day!


He was the most generous man and would help anyone “day or night”. He loved to tell stories and laugh with family and friends. He could work on anything and has fixed so many different things for so many people. He would always put he’s projects on hold to lend a helping hand. He believed in God and America! He believed in doing what was right. He worked hard and enjoyed life. He had the biggest heart and he shared it with so many. He was a great friend to me and my family.  Until we meet again… love Preston, Dawn, and Cole.

Manley was at my wifes grandmothers house looking at a washer when I met him right after  my wife got back from picking up my brand new orange hellcat rod that I was excited about and was telling Manley how awsome they was and how I couldn’t wait to get them out and test them and we talked about going fishing togather while he was putting the washer back togather I was messing with my new rod when all at once it snapped in half and manleys head whipped around and was looking at that rod like what just happen at this point I was about to cry and he looked at me and said you paid a lot for that rod it should have a warranty. Just in the short time I met him that day I enjoyed his company . My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends he truest was a great guy 

Manley was a great man and uncle.   I loved sharing my life growing up with him.  I always looked forward to our family events knowing he would be there with a big smile and huge hug.  You never got by him without that hug and I will sure miss that.  He had the heart of gold and would help anyone or anything in his path.  Still can't believe he is gone but I know he is with our heavenly father and that is the best thing we can ask!

The Renteria wedding 2015 ! To the sweetest man we love you uncle Manley. God bless you 

I worked with Manley at yellow freight. He was a humble soul. He always had a smile on his face and a positive attitude. 

                                              Co-worker Justin Ayers

I am so sorry, Frankie.  I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
