Mancy was born January 29, 1973, in Chicago, IL, the son of James McDowell and Patricia Ann Lewis. He married Anji Sampson on June 21, 2008 in Dubuque.

Mancy was a hard worker and was the best at anything he did.

It is hard to describe a man like Mancy. Anyone who had the privilege of knowing him loved him. Mancy was a loving, kind, and loyal man among other great things. What he loved most was family. Family was everything to him and there wasn’t anything he wouldn’t do for them. When his family was taken care of, Mancy was happy.

Those left to honor his memory include his wife, Anji (Sampson) Lewis of Dubuque; his four beautiful children, Eric Pryor, Brianna Lewis, Jaylyn Jewell, and Kyla Mundschenk, three sisters, Karen Lewis, Joyce Lewis, and Kimberly Lewis; one brother, Jarvis Lewis; three grandchildren, E.J. Pryor, Kai Pryor, and Isabelle Noonan; father- and mother-in-law, Al and Joan Sampson; brother- and sister-in-law, Tom and Dana Friedel; and many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Patricia Lewis, one daughter, Patricia Lewis, his grandmother, Mary Lewis, one brother-in-law, Al Sampson, and a host of aunts, uncles, and cousins.

The family thanks the many doctors and nurses, especially those at Tri-State Dialysis, and Hospice of Dubuque for their care and support.

In lieu of flowers, a memorial has been established.

Hoffmann Schneider & Kitchen Funeral Home and Cremation Service is in care of the arrangements.
