Obituary

Patricia Anne (Hartz) Manna, age 90, of Dallas, Texas, passed away on the morning of November 11, 2022, in her home. Pat was born on February 10, 1932, in Reading, Pennsylvania, to Claire S. Hartz and Mary E. Coyle.

Pat graduated from Shillington High School and attended West Chester STC where she earned a Bachelor of Science degree. Pat and her husband Robert S. Manna, of Sharon Hill, Pennsylvania, were married in 1954. Pat is survived by her husband, her two children, Matthew and Michael (Catherine), and her two grandchildren, Joe and Madeline.

Pat was well known, among family and friends, as the hostess of the family Trim Our Tree Christmas Party. Over the years, the guest list for this annual event grew to more than 250 persons. Each year, attendees were required to bring an ornament for display on the Manna Family Christmas tree. Most of those ornaments, some of which date back to the late 1950’s, exist and are put to good use each December.

A private memorial service will be held on Wednesday, November 23, 2022, at the Dallas-Fort Worth National Cemetery.

The family would like to thank Faith Presbyterian Hospice for the excellent care they provided to Pat. Remembrances may be made in the form of contributions to The T. Boone Pickens Center/Faith Presbyterian Hospice: https://www.forefrontliving.org/donate-now/.

Testimonials

"I highly recommend this funeral home and crematorium; when I had to make and pay for my brother’s arrangements across state lines, Evelyn Montonya, in particular, demonstrated both compassion and professionalism and made a very sad and difficult situation much easier. Many thanks."

"The unexpected passing of my husband was a very difficult and trying time for my boys and I. I had the good fortune of having Abel walk us thru this process. Working with him was such a weight off my shoulders. He was professional, so polite and helpful. The service was beautiful – never did I feel rushed or like just another customer. They gave me the time I needed and I appreciate that so much! Also Mr. Brooks took special care of my husband as he is a fellow mason. I would highly recommend working with Abel and North Dallas Funeral Home."

"Everyone at North Dallas Funeral Home was very professional, kind, and caring, in all steps of the process from the first phone call to the service held at their location. They help to make the process as easy and comforting in my opinion as to be expected, I would recommend their service to anyone. Thank You to everyone who helped me and my family. Sincerely,"

"As soon as the call was made to Mr. Wayne Baxter all of my brothers final needs were taken care of. They walked me through what to expect the timeline and even dealt with the cemetery and the grave diggers. I was a hot mess due to my brothers sudden and unexpected passing. The experience was seamless and made it easy for my brother’s friends and family to say their last goodbyes. They even had the size to accommodate such a large group that showed up . The package deals that they offered were cost-effective and didn’t break my bank account. They included extras and accommodations that other funeral homes charged extra for. All the staff was amazing including Mr. Don Dodd . I can not thank them enough for all their help."

Dear John,

It was such a nice pleasure to meet you, and what you had planned for my father just took my breath away. It was so special to hear you tell us how he would just come over to talk with you. I think it brought him much comfort. Tha you for putting that Air Force article of him on your website. I am going to have a replica made of the painting of his plane to give you.

Thank you again for all you have done to honor our dad.

Love, The Gillilands
