Mrs. Cannaday was born in Floyd County, VA on August 18, 1917 to Richard Miles Shank Sr. and Gertrue Iva Vest Shank. She was predeceased by her parents, sister, Harriet Shank Allen; brother, Richard Jr., and husband of 50 years Stanford Aldridge Cannaday. In addition to her careers with the Viscose Corporation and Roanoke City Schools, Mrs. Cannaday enjoyed music, art, gardening, reading, and dancing with Stanford. She is remembered as a wonderful storyteller, skilled cruciverbalist, and a scholar, frequently requesting library books until the very end. She is also remembered by so many as a gentle and even tempered soul who never raised her voice in anger. In her own quiet way, she was an independent woman ahead of her time. Manila will be missed by her daughter, Iva and son-in-law, John Ferguson; granddaughters, Elizabeth (Clifton Stuckey) and Danielle (Matthew Boch); sister-in-law, Nancy Jane Shank and many cousins, nieces and nephews. Also surviving are her beloved friends, Virginia Lancaster Shields, Peggy Templeton and Janice Smyth. Manila and her family are grateful for their church family at Woodlawn United Methodist Church, the residents and staff of Our Lady of the Valley and staff of Good Samaritan Hospice. Manila also requested that you remember the words of Jesus found in John 5:24: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life." In lieu of flowers, Manila requested donations to Woodlawn UMC, 2825-A, Brambleton Avenue SW, Roanoke, VA 24015. A brief graveside service will be held on Saturday, June 13 at 1p.m. Cannaday Family Cemetery, Copper Hill, VA.
