Linda A. Manning

August 16, 1947 — September 23, 2018

Linda A. Manning, age 71 of Huber Heights, Ohio, passed away Sunday, September 23, 2018. She was born August 16, 1947 in Dayton, Ohio to the late Robert and Jean Loyd.

Linda was a graduate of Centerville H.S., class of '65 and attended Miami University for 3 1/2 years. She was an unapologetic Liberal and started her political activity in 1964 as a volunteer for the election of Rodney Love to Congress. She was active in numerous political campaigns from then until 2008. Linda was a member of both the Huber Heights and the Montgomery County Democratic Clubs; she was elected as a delegate to the 2008 National Democratic Convention for President Barack Obama, after being diagnosed with breast cancer in June of that year.

Linda was an avid reader who enjoyed traditional jazz, cross stitching, camping, and current events. Her greatest joy was being a mother and a grandmother.

Linda will be missed by her loving husband of 48 years, Jim; children, Mike (Emily) Manning, Pat Manning and Kate Manning; grandchildren, Henry and Alice; siblings, Robert Loyd, Jr., Carol Loyd, Susan (Loyd) Watson; many nieces, nephews and extended family members.
