Heaven received another angel on Sunday, October 20, 2019. Dock Knipe III; son, dad, brother, friend, uncle, and Christian, passed away suddenly on Sunday, October 20th in his new home in New Mexico, where he was to begin his new life with his wife, Angela.

When he wasn't working he enjoyed spending time with family and loving with his whole heart. He was especially fond of his nieces and nephews. He had an infectious smile and a contagious laugh.
