Carl A. Maninen, 73, of Greenwood passed away June 12, 2015, at Clark County Rehabilitation & Living Center in Owen. Carl was born Dec. 20, 1942, to the late Toivo and Bertha (Olson) Maninen. He was a 1960 graduate of Owen-Withee High School

Carl was a man with many talents. He worked as a farmer, and he drove milk truck. He also worked for the Dorchester Co-op, Walmart, and Witmers and was a handyman in repairing things. In his later years of life, he enjoyed driving the Mennonites to places and taking their children to school.

Carl is survived by his two nieces, Annette (Randy) Brossow of Medford and Sandy (Greg) Sebold of Dorchester; four great-nieces; one great-nephew; one great-great niece; four great-great-nephews; and many cousins. Carl will be missed by many.
