Whereas, he was jointly reared by his mother and grandparents, the late Mr. James "Vandy" Manigault and the late Mrs. Cornell Holmes Manigault; and

Whereas, Mr. Manigault was a member of Sharon Baptist Church in Augusta, Georgia, the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, and Edisto Lodge No. 39 Masonic Temple; and

Whereas, Mr. Manigault was a graduate of South Carolina State University, where he excelled as a fullback under legendary Bulldogs' Head Football Coach Willie Jefferies, earned the nickname "Madd Manee", and was a key contributor in the Bulldogs' 1994 Heritage Bowl victory over the Grambling State University Tigers; and

Whereas, upon graduation, he became a mathematics instructor and football coach who made a profound impact on the students at Elloree, Denmark-Olar, and Allendale-Fairfax High Schools; and

Whereas, as a testimonial to his commitment to helping guide the young people he coached, on December 9, 2007, Allendale-Fairfax High School Assistant Head Football Coach Manigault, along with Head Football Coach Wayne Farmer, served as Grand Marshalls for the Town of Allendale's Christmas Parade. Shortly after the parade, Coach Manigault lost his life in a tragic automobile accident; and
