He was an exemplary young man in every respect, a devoted son, husband and father, and faithful to all the duties and obligations of life.

On September 16, 1896. he married to Miss Sarah McGinn, who with two children survives him. He is survived also by his mother, Mrs. Thomas E. Knapp and two brothers, Frank W. Knapp of Rochester and Walter J. Knapp of Warsaw. The funeral was largely attended from St. Michaels church on Monday morning, with burial in the Catholic cemetery of this village."
