Patton, Manuelito (Mano) Joseph GySgt.
34, a deeply loved son, grandson, brother, uncle, cousin and friend passed away in a traffic accident on October 17, 2008. Mano was born in Phoenix, AZ on January 5, 1974 and loved the desert he was raised in. He worked in our family parts business, Kactus Supply since he was about 10 years old. He terrorized the desert on dirt bikes and ATV's and cleaned horse stalls for our friends, the Woods, to earn money towards a horse that he loved very much. He also saved to buy his first car, a 1966 T-bird convertible at age 11 from our dear neighbor, Mary Robins on the hill behind us. He graduated from Maryvale High in May of 1993 having been a part of the ROTC program for 3 years. He then joined the USMC in September 1993 and was off to Camp Pendleton in California. The military took him many places including Okinawa, Taiwan, the Gulf, Australia, Hawaii and Iraq. He loved to ride motorcycles, fix old cars, build motorcycles and fly. Mano was a compassionate person and spent one on one time with the people in his life. He loved children and always made them laugh and have a good time. Mano was a great friend to many and he made a lasting impression to all that he met. He was kind and sweet and quick to laugh at anything funny. He will be missed on this earth...but looking out for each of us in heaven. He is survived by his mother, Diane L. Fleischmann and her life partner, David W. Turrentine, Sr.; stepfather, Howard J. Fleischmann (Patricia R.); sisters, Nicole M. Fleisch-mann/Feagler and Kristie J. Fleischmann/Fain; brothers, Nicholas Patton, Howard J. Fleischmann, Jr. and David W.
