It is with deep sadness, the family of Bryn Knowles announces his passing on October 7, 2022. Bryn was the devoted stepfather to Ryan (Sarah) and Amanda (James). Beloved papa to Olivia, Sofia, Eliza and Owen. Predeceased by his wife Patti (2014). Bryn was born in Brantford, Ontario. He proudly enlisted and served in the Royal Canadian Navy as a meteorologist at the young age of 16. Bryn was best known for his business Niagara Falls Exchange on Queen Street. He was a lifetime member of the Niagara Falls Optimist Club, holding many positions throughout his tenure, including Past President and Lieutenant Governor. Volunteer work was important to Bryn, and he loved helping out at Optimist community events like Slo-pitch and the Fish Fry. He was an avid golfer, animal lover and family man.

My condolences to the family. Bryn was a wonderful man full of humor and knowledge. He was the first one to great me in the morning for my shift, "Baking me some cookies today, kid?" He would always have a story to tell me, whether a personal one or something he read in the paper, some advice to give to the kitchen staff, and again asking where his cookies were. As i would leave for the day he was the last person to see me off, while he sat outside reading a book, without skipping a beat "straight home kid, no straggling!" He will be truly missed by myself and my fellow coworkers.
