Manna was born on January 2, 1985 in Rapid City, SD to Richard Dillon and Pamela Colhoff. She made her journey to the Spirit World on February 14, 2019 at the Sanford Medical Center in Fargo, ND.

Manna was a beloved mother, daughter, sister, niece and aunt. She was one of the humblest and kind hearted persons anyone would ever meet. She accepted people for who they were and loved unconditionally. Family was the most important thing to Manna, and her greatest accomplishment was being a mother to her daughter, Tanna. Her face would light up anytime she would talk about Tanna. Manna loved being around her family and spending time with her brothers, aunts, uncles, and cousins whenever possible. Anytime the family needed her, she was there to give a helping hand without hesitation. She was also there to help her friends. She loved working and loved her church community. Anyone who knew Manna would describe her as being a humble and genuine human being who accepted people for who they were and knew how to forgive and move on. She was loving, understanding, and always concerned for others. She is loved by all. 

Manna is survived by daughter Tanna Dillon of Rapid City, SD; sister Monica Dillon; brothers Daniel (Taletha) Colhoff, David Colhoff, and Allen Garry, all of Rapid City, SD, and Jerome Dillon; aunts Charlene Richardson of Rapid City, SD and Mary Colhoff and Virginia Horn of Pine Ridge, SD; nephew Tristin Harman of Rapid City, SD; longtime boyfriend Craig Gay of Rapid City, SD; mother-in-law Nancy Gay of Rapid City, SD; and many beloved cousins.
