Condolences for Harry George Manglitz
Harry Manglitz was one of the kindest people you could ever meet. He was dealt some challenges in life but he persevered and always found the high road, even when others didn’t…
He was a good friend.
“Wayne State.” You the man Harry!!
Uncle Harry loved being with family. Whenever we were in town or had a big gathering/celebration he made sure he was there. He loved making us laugh & finding common ground.
Oh, I will miss Harry. He always brought joy and light into the room, even when he was mad about the Huskers!
RIP Harry. You brought warmth and laughter to all the family gatherings. Love your telling of stories especially about sports. GBR buddy!
I never really knew Harry all that well and I never really sat down and had a conversation with him unfortunately, but I could tell all he really cared about was being surrounded by the people he knew loved him, and like Michelle/Ryan said anytime there was a celebration or gathering he was always there, I remember sitting in the backseat with Harry of Ruths car multiple times I never talked that much but I remember the conversations between Harry and Ruth and I could tell they really cared for eachother and everyone else in their family, I know things got hard at times but he never let that stop him from being who he was and I admire that, may he Rest In Peace with all of the other family members who we treasure and love dearly.💗💗💗
I have known Harry since high school days. We especially kept in touch the last 30 years. He was a great friend all those years, I will surely miss our frequent conversations and his wit. Rest in peace old friend. My condolences to all his family.
