Thomas Knapik Obituary
He was the beloved husband of Melissa (nee Mara); loving father of Thomas, Mara and Nathan; cherished son of Thomas and Sharon Knapik; dear brother of Randy (Lauren) Knapik and the late Mary Rose Knapik; dearest grandson of Tom and Toots Knapik, Frederick and the late Patricia Wisniewski;, dear nephew, uncle, cousin and friend to many.
Tom was a devoted father of 3. He will be remembered as a caddie to Tommy, nail stylist to Mara, and tickle monster to Nathan. Tom was a graduate of Nordonia high school class of 2005. An avid sports fan with a love for the Cleveland Browns, Cavaliers, and Guardians. Tom was a quiet and kind spirit, but always quick to crack a joke. His sense of humor and smile will be sorely missed by all.
