  • Notes 
    • Carlyle L. Manley, age 101, passed away peacefully on Sunday, October 14, 2012, at Kindred Hearts Senior Living in Greenville where he resided. He was born on July 11, 1911, in the Town of Ellington to the late Leonard and Cleora (Gowell) Manley. He graduated from Shiocton High School in 1928. Carlyle had many jobs he enjoyed during his lifetime. He farmed in the Town of Greenville and enjoyed logging and wood cutting. He was the assessor for the Town of Greenville for 10 years, Insurance Agent for Ellington Mutual Insurance Company for 25 years and was on the Outagamie County Soil and Water Conservation Board for 30 years.

      Carlyle was the most social and sociable of people and always with a kindness, compassion, and concern for others. He had a great sense of humor, a wonderful smile and seemed to have that forever twinkle in his eye. Even in his late stages of life, and through trying times, he was still "cracking up" doctors, nurses, caregivers, etc. with his marvelous and sometimes very wry wit. He could win them over in a instant. The body may have been failing, but there was nothing wrong with the mind. He could always make the best of a bad situation.

      Family was extremely important to Carlyle and he was a role model to his survivors who include: daughters, Nancy (Don) Gehring, Karen (Gary) Bellin, Mary (John) Stolzman, 13 grandchildren, 3 step-grandchildren, 30 great-great-grandchildren, 8 step-great-grandchildren, 10 great-great-grandchildren, sister-in-law, Lorrayne Hoewisch and many other nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends. He was preceded in death by his wife, Francis (Andrews) Manley in 2001; son Lyle in August 2012; 3 great-grandchildren, 3 brothers and 3 sisters.

      A funeral service for Carlyle will be held on Friday, October 19, 2012, at 5:00 p.m. at the Borchardt & Moder Funeral Home in Hortonville with Rev. Lary Long officiating. Burial will be in Ellington Union Cemetery. A visitation for Carlyle will be held on Friday directly at the funeral home from 3:00 p.m. until the time of the service.

      Carlyle believed that many of the best gifts in life are free. Thanks, Carlyle/Dad/Gramps, for sharing your gifts. We will always cherish them.
