Robert "Bob" Lee Mannering (January 30, 1930 - Jun 16, 2022)

Robert "Bob" Lee Mannering, age 92, passed away peacefully on June 16th, 2022 at Kansas City Hospice House. He was born on January 30, 1930 in Kansas City, Missouri to James and Elsie Mannering. He married the love of his life, Barbara Mannering on September 4th, 1949 at the Methodist Church in Salisbury, Missouri. They were united in marriage for 70 years.

Bob had a servant's heart. He was always willing to lend a helping hand. Whether it was from his many skills or his good advice, he was always available. He was always generous with his time, skills, and charitable contributions.
He was known as a "jack of all trades"; from gardening (winning the McCoy Neighborhood Beautification Award in 2015), and car repair to even building his retirement dream home in Warrensburg, Missouri.

Bob was always active in the communities where he resided. He was the pastor of three Community of Christ Churches; Second Church, Kentucky Hills, and Warrensburg branches. He served as President of the Kiwanis Club of Warrensburg. He served his community as a Boy Scout Leader. He volunteered at the Senior Center and the Community Food Bank in Warrensburg, Missouri.

Taking on his first job at the age of 15 he worked at the Ice Plant in Independence, Missouri. His mechanical skills led him to a position at the Auto Supply House doing maintenance on Tour Buses. He moved on to work for Ford Company producing Fighter Planes. His green thumb came about when he took on jobs doing landscaping throughout Independence, Missouri. His mechanical prowess took him to Bendix Cooperation, working for 34 years, retiring as a tool and die machinist. After retirement, he enjoyed traveling with Barbara. They enjoyed packing up their camper and traveling with friends all over the country.
