I loved the show you and your kids made. I met Nancy once, and saw all your friends on your basement. Nancy listened to me as I told her what a big effect you had on my life.

Nancy-

I hope you remember that I took your online art history class two semesters ago-I saw the notice for your dad, and immediately remembered the pictures that you had showing your travels with your father to distant lands to see wonderful art. I also heard that you were on sabatical this past semester, and hope that you were able to spend more wonderful, quality time with your father. My condolances to you and your family during this difficult time. I will be keeping you in my prayers.

Sincerely,

Michelle Wienke

A piece of our past is gone with Mr. (Bob) Knechtel. Watching Paper Capers as a kid; swimming at his house in our teen years; or just listening to his great stories (he seemed to know everyone!). These are great memories of a memorable person -- we will miss you.
