Kathleen Anne Manning
Kathleen Anne Manning (Deroche), age 66, of Rochester, passed away peacefully Monday, March 9, 2020 at Seasons Hospice Home, in Rochester, MN.
Kathy was born July 1, 1953 to George and Katherine (Rebaldo) Deroche. She moved to Minnesota with Dennis Manning and together they raised three sons.
Kathy had a big heart that was full of unconditional love. She lived for her kids and grandkids, and especially enjoyed their family meals together.
Kathy is survived by three sons, Matt, Andy (Melissa), and Jeff; four grandchildren, Tolynn, Danae, Emerson, and Julian; and brother, George Deroche.
She was preceded in death by her parents.
Kathy prepared herself; she made sure everything was in order. She always put her children first, no matter what. She adored all her grandchildren in a loving way they will never ever forget. We will carry on her memory by filling Christmas buckets with candy just like she did, buying silly festive sweaters just like she did, making sure to find the most outrageous Easter chocolates for the kiddos just like she did, and making sure our kids win at uno at least once just like she did.
She fought a good fight and was a strong woman. She will always be in our hearts, as the important things in life we shared a great passion for.

I really enjoyed being a colleague of Kathy. Both being native to South Louisiana, our conversations were all about food- Louisiana cuisine no less, and New Orleans. Kathy will be missed.
So sorry for the Manning family. Kathy is pain free and better than before..Joe Sutherland
It is with great shock and sadness that I learned of Kathy's passing. I remember when Kathy started working at RMH and for so many years, what a delightful colleague she was. Kathy had a soothing, genuine gentleness about her. And her eyes always had such a twinkle. She was a good friend and a wonderful person. I feel very fortunate in having known her. To her family, my sincere, deepest sympathy. To others, I share in the loss of our dear friend. Penny (Marshall) Lex
