Kathleen Rose (Nyland) Manheim, age 69, Covington Twp. and formerly Taylor, passed away Sunday morning at home. Her husband of 43 years was the late Jame Allen Manheim who passed away on September 4, 2016.

Born August 28, 1953 in Niagara Falls, NY, daughter of the late Ronald Willis and Ada Frances Herbold Nyland, Kathleen worked as a seamstress, beautician, and later in life as a crossing guard for North Pocono School District. But her most rewarding endeavor was as a mom of 4 lovely children. Kathleen was active in the Cortez Community Church, Lake Ariel.

A kind soul who gave of herself to everyone. Her meekness was not to be mistaken for weakness. She was very opinionated when she felt things were not right, and was not afraid to open her mouth when she felt she needed to. Family was her life, and being surrounded by friends was her ultimate pleasure. The five most important letter in the alphabet to her were B-I-N-G-O.
Gone too soon, she will be forever remembered by those whose lives she touched.

Surviving are here loving children: JoAnn Clarkson, Teresa Lindgren, and husband, Jeff, Sherry Bell, and husband, Scott, and Steven Manheim, and wife, Pam; many grandchildren and great grandchildren.

A brother, Ronald Nyland preceded her in death.

A Celebration of Life will be held for both James and Kathleen at Chapman Lake, Scott Township at a time to be announced with Rev. Dan Hulse , pastor of Cortez Community Church.

Arrangements are under the care of the Thomas P. Kearney Funeral Home, Inc., 517 North Main Street, Old Forge.
