Heather Diane Knapp

[1945] - December 27, 2024

Peacefully, encircled by her daughters, Heather Diane Knapp passed on December 27th, 2024 at Pinecrest Nursing Home in Bobcaygeon.

At the age of 79, she returned home to reunite with her husband Jack Orvel Knapp (2006) of 38 years, her daughter Cathy Gloria Knapp (1971) and son Jason Knapp (2020) (Angel).

Forever remembered by her daughter Michelle Diane Knapp, granddaughter Kayla Violet Coursolle and grandsons Jacob Jack Knapp and Noah Jae Knapp.

Born to the late Ola Bertha Zinck nee Mersey and Teeman Lawson Zinck. Sister to Raeburn Zinck (Marilyn), the late Bonnie Parsons (Bob), and the late Margaret Moore ( the late Ray).

Remembered and cherished by many nieces, nephews and great-nephews.

A lifetime of friendship to Cathy Galloway, Eleanor Thiesson and Gloria Moore...a lifetime of love and memories.

Heather enjoyed the cottage on Sturgeon Lake with family and neighbours and later the motor home and all the trips and adventures with Jack and family and friends. She loved dancing with her husband and tap dancing as a child.

She enjoyed knitting, sewing, gardening, baking, attending church and spoiling her beloved dog, Julie.

The family would like to extend their sincerest gratitude and appreciation to the Keswick Day Program that Heather attended for many years as well as the many PSWs, Marilyn and Caroline Prada. Also, to all at Pinecrest Nursing Home…with heartfelt appreciation to Angel Knapp and all her family and friends who made life at home possible for Heather.

May she return now to her Father in Heaven and always remembered to those in earth.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him, should not perish but have everlasting life, Amen.
