Our thoughts and prayers are with you especially during this time of grief. We want to express to you how much Grandma Knoper ment to me and my whole family throughout the years since I got to know her more than thirty years ago, when I came into the Knoper family as an exchange -student. I remember the warm welcome she gave me at the first Sunday coffeetime after church and the many times after that, her delicious raspberry- and other pies and her caring love for everyone. We want to thank...

I was sorry to hear of "Grandma Knoper" passing away. In her lifetime she was a grandma for so many people. When I got to know her over 30 years ago, I was really touched by her warm heart, her hospitality, her faith. We laughed a lot at family reunions Sunday after church. My thoughts are with you all in this time of grief. May the Lord give you comfort.

Although I am too far to attend the funeral, traveling and in New York, my thoughts and prayers are with you all today. Through our father we were priviledged to be a part of this wonderful family and have though distant followed Aunt Janet. When she came to Daddy's funeral, she looked much younger than he did and I remember her smile and good wishes she extended to us all. May the love of our God and Father be with all her family at this difficult time in their lives. With all my love to...
