Indianapolis - Samuel F. Mannon, 66, of Indianapolis, passed away April 20, 2020 at St. Francis Hospital. He was born May 20, 1953 in Somerville, NJ, to Harry and Alice (Krautwurst) Mannon. Growing up on family farms in Hunterdon County, NJ, and Williams Township in Northampton County Pennsylvania, Sam loved the outdoors and was passionate about farming.

He worked in construction and as an operator of heavy machinery. Sam was a loving uncle to Ellis and Joyce Mannon, children of brother James H. (wife Stuart) Mannon, who all survive him. The family thanks Bethany Village and his friends there for the care and fellowship he enjoyed while it was his home. A service will take place on May 2 at 2 pm, preceded by small-gathering visitation at 1pm, at Nora Chapel, Leppert Mortuary.
