Manuel Carrillo was a hard -working man from sunup to sundown. He loved his truck, which you could spot a mile away, with his light on top. He was quite the home decorator and an avid collector of knickknacks and could not resist a bargain. He loved his vhs and dvd movies. He collected toys constantly, so that his grandkids would never be without. If there was a family event, you can be sure you would find him on the grill. He had a smile that could light up the room and a laugh that would fill your heart with joy. His big beautiful hazel eyes had a lot of life in them and you can be sure they left a lasting impression. He would be the 1st one to give you the shirt off his back and would not want anything in return. He was stubborn at times, but his heart was always open with love. He was a simple man who did not want for much. He enjoyed being a part of his big family and missed his parents deeply. He was a loving dad but excelled at being the best Grandpa.
