Manny was born to Manuel H. Flores Legarda and Maria D. Morales Pillado on July 25, 1990, in Chihuahua, Mexico.On his seventh birthday, Manny moved with his family to start a new life in Colorado. They lived a short period of time in Center and Pueblo, Colorado before moving to the Denver metro area in the year 2000.  Manny attended Mapleton Public Schools, and completed his high school diploma at Boxelder Job Corps in Nemo, SD.

In his youth he liked creating music and writing songs; he enjoyed the outdoors, time with his friends, playing sports, and watching movies.  He played basketball, boxed, and his favorite class during high school was swimming. As a young adult, he loved riding his motorcycle and spending time with Denver, his loyal colorful chameleon pet he had for years.  He also enjoyed having "carne asada" gatherings with his friends and family, and he could not go one day without his favorite sweets and candies.

Manny was loved by many.  He was an astute leader and was empathetic, generous, and very compassionate, especially towards those in need.
