Kane Kneip Obituary
With aching hearts, we share that Kane Kneip has passed away. A son, a brother, a friend - but most importantly, a proud dad to his daughter Lincoln, the absolute light of his life.
To know Kane was to experience someone truly unforgettable. Loud, loyal, and unapologetically himself, he was the kind of person who could turn an ordinary moment into a memory. Charming and funny, he was always quick with a joke or a ridiculous story, Kane was a magnet - the kind of guy who made a room brighter just by walking in. "Cat Daddy is in da house!" wasn't just a catchphrase - it was Kane's energy, and everyone around him felt it.
Born August 19, 1979 in Fort Worth, Texas, born to Mary Eileen and Larry Allen Kneip. The only redhead of the bunch, Kane was already making a statement from day one. He was the middle child of 3 boys and it showed!
Kane attended Southwest Christian , where he played just about every sport that would let him suit up - soccer, basketball, football, and baseball - before attending Southwest High School and graduating in 1997. He never stopped repping his hometown teams - the Cowboys, the Longhorns, the Rangers, the Mavs, the Stars - win or lose, he was all in.
Kane loved his people hard. He showed up, made you laugh, and probably convinced you to stay out later than you should've. No matter the occasion - a backyard barbecue, game day, or just an excuse to hangout- Kane was ready for the party. But nothing compared to the love he had for his little girl Lincoln, whom he has left behind brokenhearted.
He is preceded in death by his beloved twin daughters, Sophia Lorraine and Isabella Exie Kneip, his parents Larry Allen and Mary Eileen Kneip, and his aunt Linda Kneip.
Kane leaves behind his daughter Lincoln Elise, his brothers Kyle and Kelly, and countless friends and family members who will miss him more than words can say.
Though our hearts are heavy, we hold tight to the laughter, the light, and the love that Kane brought into our lives. He was one of a kind - and we'll carry his spirit with us, always.
Rest easy, Kane. Your friends will keep the party going for you.
