A wonderful neighbour who will be greatly missed in the neighbourhood. He was an incredible gardener and I loved learning tips and tricks from him.
We will miss seeing his face pop over the fence, and his laugh.
Condolences to you all, as you begin to grieve such a loss to your family. RIP in his heavy garden.
Sending prayers and condolences to all of you
May he rest in peace
Our heart and prayers go out to all the family over this huge loss. Manuel was such a happy and friendly man. I will have fond memories of him at Beckwith Park as we enjoyed and watched our grandkids play together. Given his strong faith in the good Lord he is truly in a better place now. No more pain or suffering. He leaves behind an unforgetable legacy and will live on through his family. Our deepest condolences
Sincere condolences to Rita, Anita, Tony, Emanuel and family on the loss of Manuel. Mr. Carreiro was always smiling and sent me home with grapes from the back yard many times. A life well lived, and a man who will be missed by many, but always close in the heart.
Sending love and prayers to the family. I’ll plant some lettuce in my garden for him.
My heart is devastated for you, Anita and Henry and all your family.
Sending prayers and condolences from all of us.
