Tony Dwayne Mann of Lubbock, TX was called to his Heavenly home on March 14, 2024, at 7:18 PM. He was born on August 28, 1964.
Tony graduated from Monterey High School in 1982 and attended Texas Tech University for two years. He drove a truck nationwide for U.S. Xpress for six years and subsequently worked at Texas Tech university in the Information Technology Department for 17 years. He began to have a significant health issue in 2021 and was unable to work after October 2021. His health issues continued to worsen leading God to call him home on March 14, 2024.
Tony is survived by his parents, Dr. Herschel and Marcelle Mann of Lubbock, brother Keith Mann and his wife Sheri, and their sons Alan and Thomas Mann of Lubbock. He is preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Millard and Gertrude Mann of Johnsville, Arkansas and his maternal grandparents, Elmon and Virginia Cockrell of Monticello, Arkansas.
Tony was a very outgoing and loving person. As he moved around campus trouble shooting technology issues, he always enjoyed visiting with as many people as possible. He felt comfortable talking with anyone on campus including the Chancellor. It didn’t matter who was nearby. He would make it a point to talk to them. He truly loved his time working at Texas Tech.
In lieu of flowers, the family has designated donations to the Dr. Herschel Mann Scholarship fund at Texas Tech University.
