Once everyone was served, she would sit back and drink a cold Pepsi or Coke.In addition to her daughter, Malethia H. Manns, “Pet” is also survived by two grandchildren, Terrance J. Schoefield and Vintoria S. Manns; two sisters, Vera A. Thornton of Martinsville, VA and Mary J. Brown of Chesapeake, VA; a special niece, Alison S.
