Glen Arbor’s Revolutionary Realtor

Doug Manning, an avid outdoorsman, hunter, sailor and connoisseur of fine colas, passed away on June 9. A realtor with a big personality and tremendous sense of humor, Manning and friend Michelle Stryker found an anchor off Empire beach in 1977 that prompted the town to celebrate its annual Anchor Day Festival. Manning was a regular at the Leelanau Coffee Roasters. Though a patriot and proud conservative, he once jokingly dressed as Fidel Castro for this real estate poster. RIP, Doug!
