Papa was a lifetime resident of New Mexico. He was born to immigrant parents, Alberto Manfredi and Beatrice Persiconi on October 2, 1916, in Dawson, New Mexico. Papa is survived by his wife, best friend, and soul mate of 59 years, Edith G. Manfredi. He also leaves sons, William Manfredi and wife, Shirley, Carl Manfredi and wife, Patti; grandchildren, Daphne Saragusa and husband, Kari, William Manfredi, Jr., and wife, Karla, Jana Manfredi, Damon Manfredi and wife, Ansley, Frank L.

Papa grew up in Raton, NM, and played guard on the 1936 Raton "Tigers" High School State Champion basketball team. He later coached at St. Patrick's High School, in Raton. He served in the Army, stationed in the Pacific, during WWII. After the war, Papa moved to Albuquerque, to attend the University of New Mexico. He worked for the University Food Stores department as a butcher while attending school, and after graduating with a business degree, became the UNM Food Purchasing Agent. During that time, he managed and worked the University's concession stands for all the basketball and football games. Because of his hard work ethic, outstanding loyalty and dedication to UNM, he was promoted to Purchasing Agent. He worked in that capacity until his retirement in 1981. He received a gold retirement watch. Papa met his neighbor, Edith Norman, and asked her to tutor him in his university studies. They became great friends, and a romance blossomed. They married July 24, 1948. Papa literally married the "girl next door" and was the epitome of the perfect husband. Papa loved his wife, family, fishing and playing golf. He was a University Golf Association President and proud owner of two hole-in-one trophies. Papa was a builder. He built editions on homes he lived in, as well as editions and barns for relatives. He played an integral part as Purchasing Agent in the growth and building of the University of New Mexico from 1950 to 1981. He built lasting friendships, which have withstood the test of time. Papa was a cook. While at the University, if there was a steak-fry for any sporting event, Papa was the cook. He personally purchased, prepared and cooked thousands of steaks. The UNM Tucker and McGuire Golf Tournaments were his favorites. He always enlisted family and friends to help him. Papa was a survivor. He survived congestive heart failure at age 73. He survived small cell lung cancer at age 89. We will miss Papa's steaks, his "can do" attitude, his smile, his friendship, his genuine goodness, his wisdom, and his love.
