Todd Bryan Manning, age 37, joined his Father, Bryan Manning and his Brother, Sean Manning in Heaven on November 10, 2024. He was living in Tucson, Arizona. Born to Bryan Manning and Kathy Jarrett (Manning-Darling) on July 22, 1987 in Sierra Vista, Arizona. There aren’t enough words to describe who Todd was. If you knew him, you loved him. He was an amazing father and genuinely cared for every person he met. He had a big huge heart. Todd put others first before himself. (He made the choice to be a Doner and was able to save lives). Todd was a hard worker and started his own painting company (Manning’s Attention 2 Detail Painting) at a very young age along with his best friend/brother, Red aka Chris Young. They were inseparable since the age of 10. Unfortunately, Todd was in an ATV accident that took his life way too soon, while he was on his Elk Hunting trip. Hunting was something he loved to do. Some of his other hobbies he loved were camping and fishing in the White Mountains, getting on Tik-Tok live everyday with his coin collecting, being a jokester, and loved his African Grey Parrot name “Bird” who he taught to talk way too much. He would foster parrot’s until they found a home, and most of all loved spending time with his family and friends. His contagious laugh, and funny stories will be missed and his memories will be cherished forever.
He is survived by his children, Lilly, Todd Jr., Ahlena, Hunter, his fiance Ashley Moore and children, Isabella and her son Jose, Lily, mother Kathy Jarrett and Step Father Mark Jarret, Step-Brothers Max and Nate Jarrett, sister Keri Manning Brzuchalski and her husband Donny Brzuchalski and their children Aubrey, Evelle Gotchell, Elias Gotchell, Harley, brother Sean Manning’s two children David and Tiana, as well as many nephews, nieces, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents and great grandparents.
He was preceded in death by his loving father Bryan Manning, brother Sean Manning, grandfather Lawrence Manning, grandfather Oscar Fisher, grandparents Sally and Nacho Valenzuela, Mother in law to be Cindy Calapan, cousin James Manning, cousin Michael Allen Fisher, cousin Jake Martin and other uncles, aunts, great grandparents, cousins and friend Silas Gotchell.
There will be a celebration of Todd’s life for family and friends and others whose lives Todd touched on Saturday, January 25th, 2025 at the VFW in Sierra Vista, Arizona, 549 Veterans Drive, Sierra Vista, Arizona from 6:30 p.m to 9:30 p.m. (If you can please wear your camo in support of Todd)

As being the father of Ashley Moore and grandfather to Hunter , I’m deeply saddened by this tragic accident that Todd suffered and praying for peace among Todd’s family and children. Todd was a great father to all his children and always went out his way to make sure I was comfortable while visiting with he and his family. He will be missed by many and loved by all !!! Rest in peace my friend…..
