Linda Knapinski was
born August 17th 1952 in
North Dakota, where she
lived until the family
moved to Washington
State. In 1968 she met and
married Jack Knapinski
and became a devoted and
loving mother of two
daughters and a son. She
was a housewife until the
children graduated from
school.
She always partook in
school activities and craft
fairs. She was crafty in
crocheting, sewing, paint-
ing, baking. The holidays
were her favorite time of
year for making
homemade decorations
and bake goods for all she
knew.
For a brief moment she
was a caretaker, but most-
ly she did housecleaning
jobs to support her crafty
habits. She always had a
smile on her face and
made sure you had a
smile as well.
Later she moved to
North Dakota to live with
her mother in White
Earth. For the last 7 years
Linda has lived in Tioga,
North Dakota.
She is preceded in
death by her mother,
Blanche (Schroeder) Hen-
drickson; father, Oliver
Holen; sister, Kathy Gil-
more, and son, Jack Kna-
pinski Jr.
Linda is survived by
her daughters, Lynn Ar-
nold and Kristina Howe;
brothers, Oliver Holen Jr,
Donald Holen, and Micha-
el Holen; and sister, San-
dy (Holen) West. She is
also survived by 7
grandchildren and 4
great-grandchildren.
