In Loving Memory of Thomas Edward Knapp
August 30, 1961 – August 25, 2025

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Tom Knapp, a devoted husband, father, beloved grandfather, brother, and cherished friend, who left us peacefully on August 25, 2025 at the age of 63.

Tom was a man of quiet strength, deep wisdom, and boundless love. He dedicated his life to his family, always putting others before himself and finding joy in the simple moments shared with his loved ones. Tom lived by example—offering unconditional love, gentle guidance, and an unwavering sense of responsibility.

He is survived by his wife: Dana Knapp, as well as his Children: Alesha Knapp, Joe Wall, and Hailey Smiley who carry forward his values and love. He leaves behind his treasured grandchildren: Antonio Salazar, Ash Knapp, Navaeh Watkins, Xzavier Knapp, Brandon Knapp, Kendall Watkins, J.J. Wall, Lamar Heinrich and Xyla Boyer, who were the light of his life and the source of his endless pride and laughter. As well as his siblings: Charles Knapp, Karen Bachman, and Curtis Knapp. 

Tom is preceded in death by his daughter, Stefanie Knapp, his father Edward Knapp, and his mother Joan Tolliver. Their memory lives on in the stories, traditions, and love that continue within the family. Tom will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. Though our hearts are broken, we find comfort in the memories we hold and the love he gave so freely. His legacy lives on in the lives he touched. We love you always
