Later In Life

Towards the end of his life, Avery spent most of his days at the house he lived with his wife in for 25 years. He was never admitted into any sort of nursing home but, remained ambulatory even towards the very end; enough to take care of himself and his house for the most part. During the holidays he would still host his children and their children for a nice meal and quality time. Earlier this year, Avery's neighbors found him dead in his living room; morticians would later declare he passed away peacefully in his sleep. Manning was 85 years old.
