| Teresa Manning | ||
| WHEREAS, Family and friends are mourning the loss of Teresa | ||
| Ann Bock Manning, who passed away on September 30, 2024, at the | ||
| age of 92; and | ||
| WHEREAS, The daughter of William and Kathryn Koppy Bock, | ||
| the former Teresa Bock was born on January 31, 1932, in Roscoe, | ||
| Minnesota, and she grew up with the companionship of three older | ||
| siblings, Edward, Theodore, and Donna; in 1952, she married the | ||
| love of her life, Laurence "Mick" Manning, and they went on to | ||
| share more than five decades together; three weeks after their | ||
| wedding, Mr. Manning was deployed to serve in the Korean War as a | ||
| member of the U.S. Air Force; when he returned, the couple bought | ||
| their first house in Roseville, Minnesota; they were blessed with | ||
| six children, Mike, Dave, Bill, Kathy, Don, and John, and their | ||
| family eventually grew to include nine grandchildren and eight | ||
| great-grandchildren; and | ||
| WHEREAS, When Mr. Manning was discharged from the | ||
| military, the family moved to Fort Worth in 1967 to be closer to | ||
| Mrs. Manning's brother, Ed; after spending two decades as a | ||
| devoted homemaker, she enrolled in the nursing program at Harris | ||
| Hospital, receiving her licensed vocational nurse license in | ||
| 1974 and registered nurse license in 1982; and | ||
| WHEREAS, In their later years, Mr. and Mrs. Manning | ||
| retired to a home on Lake Granbury, and they traveled in their | ||
| motor home, spending summers in Minnesota with friends and | ||
| family; following Mr. Manning's passing in 2003, Mrs. Manning | ||
| lived with her sister, Donna, in Benbrook for many years; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Teresa Manning led a full and generous life | ||
| surrounded by those she loved, and they will forever carry her | ||
| close in their hearts; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 89th | ||
| Legislature, hereby pay tribute to the memory of Teresa Ann Bock | ||
| Manning and extend heartfelt sympathy to the members of her | ||
| family: to her children, Michael Manning and his wife, Cindy, | ||

| Emma, Mary Elizabeth, Anne Margaret, and Owen; and to her many | ||
