David Gene Manz<\/p>\n
David Manz, 60, passed away at St. Joseph Medical Center in Bellingham on December 28, 2012. He was born January 12, 1952 in Seattle to Jack L. and Phyllis J. Manz. He was raised in Kent and graduated from Kent-Meridian High School. His love of airplanes and travel led him to his career at Continental Airlines, where he was employed for many years. Once retired from the airlines he pursued his passion for boats and the Puget Sound and sought a second career working for the Washington State Ferries. As a skilled handyman, he received joy from restoring various vehicles and several homes in the Northwest. He also enjoyed the outdoors, whether it be skiing the slopes at Mt. Rainier, tending to his garden, or gazing at the moon.
