Note: OVE? THANK YOU, I LOVE YOU, I THANK GOD THAT YOU WERE A PART OF OUR LIVES. I KNOW THAT I WAS BLESSED THROUGH HIS LIFE, AND HE PASSED WITH HIS LOVING WIFE, JEAN MANCILL; AND HIS CHILDREN BESIDE HIM. PHYLLIS HYDEN, MIKE MANCILL, SALLY BROWN, AND SARAH MOORE, STAYED ALL NIGHT WITH HIM. WE TALKED MOTHER INTO LAYING DOWN TO REST, THEN ME AND SARAH FELL ASLEEP ABOUT 4 am. PHYLLIS AND MIKE STAYED WITH HIM ALL NIGHT, TRYING TO COMFORT HIM AS HE PASSED ON TO MEET JESUS. I NEVER DREAMED THAT JESUS WOULD TAKE HIM SO SOON. THE DOCTORS THE NIGHT BEFORE AT THE HOSPITAL, HAD TOLD US THAT HE MIGHT HAVE 6 MONTHS LEFT. WE DIDN'T REALLY BELIEVE THAT HE WOULD LEAVE US SO SOON, BUT I KNOW THAT IS WHAT HE WANTED--TO DIE WITH DIGNITY--IN HIS OWN HOME SURROUNDED BY THE PEOPLE WHO LOVED HIM. LOU HAS BEEN GONE ALMOST 2 YEARS NOW, AND IT STILL MAKES ME CRY TO WRITE THIS. YET, I AM SO GRATEFUL THAT I HAVE MY MOTHER STILL HERE TO BE WITH US.--:(
LOU OR AS THE GRANDCHILDREN CALL HIM, "HONEY" HAS BEEN LIKE A FATHER TO ME AND MY SISTERS AND BROTHERS. HE HAS BEEN NOT ONLY GOOD TO MY MOTHER, BUT ALSO TO ALL OF HIS STEP-CHILDREN. THE MOST SPECIAL THING "LOU" EVER TOLD ME WHEN I WAS ABOUT SIXTEEN YEARS OF AGE. I WAS WORRYING ABOUT MY LOOKS AS USUAL. I WAS GETTING READY FOR A DATE, AND I COULDN'T MAKE UP MY MIND WHETHER I WAS GOING TO WEAR ANY MAKE-UP OR NOT. LOU TOLD ME THAT I WAS SO BEAUTIFUL THAT I DIDN'T NEED TO WEAR ANY MAKE-UP, AND THAT I LOOKED BEAUTIFUL WITHOUT IT. HE PROBABLY NEVER KNEW JUST HOW MUCH THAT ONE SENTENCE MEANT TO ME. I HAD NEVER HAD ANY MAN, OR BOY TELL ME THAT I WAS BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE YOU LOU AND YOU ARE SPECIAL! LOVE, SALLY MARCH 19, 1995.
LOUIS AND HIS FAMILY MOVED TO MOBILE, ALABAMA IN 1943. HE WENT TO WORK FOR THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC RAILROAD IN 1950'S, IN HOUSTON, HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS. HE SERVED IN THE U.S. ARMY IN WORLD WAR II HIS TROOP MARCHED ALONG THE AUSTRIAN GERMAN BORDER TO FRANCE. HE ALSO SERVED IN THE U.S. ARMY IN THE KOREAN WAR IN SEOUL, KOREA. LOUIS CLIFFORD MANCILL WAS RAISED ON A FARM BETWEEN ROBERTSDALE & SUMMERSDALE, ALABAMA UNTIL ABOUT 1943 WHEN THE MANCILL FAMILY MOVED TO MOBILE, ALABAMA. LOUIS WROTE HIS MEMOIRS. I PRINTED A COPY OF THEM AND GAVE THEM TO MY STEP BROTHER, MIKE MANCILL, UPON MY DAD'S PASSING. I HOPE THAT HE SHARES IT WITH HIS DESCENDANTS ALSO. MY DAD ASKED ME MORE THAN ONCE, WHY I DO ALL THIS WORK ON OUR GENEALOGY, THAT NO ONE WOULD EVER READ IT. SO SAD, THAT HE THOUGHT NO ONE WOULD CARE TO READ HIS HISTORY, BUT HE WAS A HUMBLE MAN. I TOLD HIM THAT I WOULD READ IT, AND THERE WOULD BE "SOMEONE" OUT THERE WHO WILL WANT TO KNOW. BESIDES THAT, I TOLD HIM, I ENJOY LEARNING ABOUT OUR FAMILY HISTORY. LOU LEFT OFF ON HIS HISTORY IN THE 1970'S, WHEN WE TOOK A TRIP TO IOWA TO VISIT THE LINDERMAN HOME PLACE WITH MOTHER. HE HAD TOO MUCH TROUBLE BREATHING IN THE LAST FEW YEARS TO FINISH. I PLAN TO FINISH IT FOR HIM. MOTHER DOESN'T LIKE TO WRITE, BUT SHE LOVES TO TALK.--:)
LOUIS' FATHER, ELLIOTT MANCILL, WROTE A BOOK ABOUT HIS LIFE, WITH HIS BROTHER, GLENN MANCILL AND DEBORAH MANCILL HENDRIX, EDITING AND PRINTING IT. WE RECEIVED A COPY OF IT.

Louis Clifford Mancill
Birth: Nov. 2, 1924
Pensacola
Escambia County
Florida, USA
Death: Dec. 20, 2002
Houston
Harris County
Texas, USA
Grew up in Robertsdale & Mobile, Alabama. Grandson of John Travis Wilson & Annie (Flowers) Wilson; and Edmond & Rosetta (Dillard) Mancill of Alabama.
One of eight (8) living children. Son of Elliott Devocious Mancill & Cora Lee (Wilson) Mancill of Alabama.
Served as a Pvt. in World War II, in France in the U.S. Army, and was promoted to Sgt. when he served in U.S. Army in Korea. Served as a infantryman and cook in the Army near the front lines in France. He risked his life to feed our troups.
Married to Myrtle Marie Elder in 1948 in Mobile, Alabama.
Children: Robert and Carl Mancill, in Alabama.
Moved to Houston, Texas in the 1950's. Married to Mildred Marie Bartlett in 1955 in Houston, Texas.
Children: Michiael Wayne Mancill, in Houston, Harris County, Texas. Resided in Jacinto City, TX. Divorced in 1968.
Married to my Mother, Jean Marie Linderman Frederick on December 5, 1968 at Harmony Wedding Chapel, I45S in Houston, Texas. Jean survived Louis.
No children by "birth", but six children by way of "heart". He always called me his Daughter, and I felt loved by him. I babysat for his son, Michiael, in 1967, on Cheston Dr., Jacinto City, Texas. I was only 12 years of age. Mike and me are brother & sister in God's eyes anyway. Mike and his Dad loved to play the guitar together. Lou never favored any of the children over the others. He loved all "God's children" equally.
"Alabama Lou" is what his friends at Shakey's Pizza Parlor, in Pasadena, Texas called him. Lou played music with Paul Buskirk, Paul's daughter, and Johnny Day in 1970's.
Anyone who ever met him knew that he loved his family and was a proud U.S. Army Veteran of World War II and Korea. Louis played the guitar and sang for his buddies.
In 1980, me, my Mother and Dad, were blessed to be able to visit England and France. My Dad revisited some of the places that he was stationed at in France. He never was able to talk about the horror of it all, because he said that it hurt too much.
He was a faithful, lifelong Church of Christ member. He had a brother, Glenn & Marie (Black) Mancill, who survived him, they live in Friendswood, Texas. Since, Louis and Glenn both resided in Houston, Texas and worked at the Southern Pacific Railroad together; they were able to spend a lot of time fishing and hunting together. They even bought homes two houses down from each other on Cheston Drive in Jacinto City, Texas. "Lou" even had a Harley Davidson motorcycle in 1947.
Louis also had two brothers, John Elliott and Gerald Mancill, who reside in Alabama that survived him. His parents, brother Floyd, and a sister, Emma Laura (Mancill) Matuk, preceded him in death. Emma resided in California, and had two adopted children. I never knew their names.
"Cliff" is what they called him at work. He worked for the Lee Thompson, Co. for many years. He did air conditioning and heating repair. But...my Dad could fix anything! He loved working with his hands.
We still have a beautiful home in Houston, Texas, that his two hands helped us to rebuild after it flooded in 2001.
"Lou" as we called him, and my Mother, Jean Marie(Linderman)Frederick Mancill, built us a home up on the lake at Sam Houston Lake Estates near Cleveland, Texas in 1969. Of course, we children helped a lot too.
In our day, children were not allowed to be lazy, and were taught to help out each other. It still stands today.
He told me that he wired his parents home in Robertsdale, Alabama, so that they could have their first home with electricity back in the 1940's. He told me that he asked the hardware man how to hook up electricity for his parents, and he told him how to do it and went home and hooked it up. His Mother cried when she saw that he had given her electricity.
I could go on and on about all the things this man did while on this earth, but there isn't enough time to. I'll just say that he was an christian, honest, faithful, hardworking, responsible, patriotic, and good man, who is dearly missed.
