With great respect and sadness we share the passing of Veteran Dempsey E. Manley, 92, of Owensboro. PO3 Manley was a proud U.S. Navy veteran who served 1953-1958, during the Korean War. He was an air controller VWI outfit in Japan. Those closest to him describe him as a simple man who loved his family, hunting, farming, and UK Basketball. Dempsey was a member of South Hampton Baptist Church, where he was also a deacon for many years. We had the privilege of providing Dempsey his Honor Flight just recently in September, EVV21 red bus. Our sincere condolences and prayers go to his family and friends. Thank You Sir for your service and commitment to this great country and your community. Your dedication is appreciated and will not be forgotten. Rest in Peace and know you made a great difference. 🇺🇸✈️🙏🏼⚓️
