Rev. Thomas Henry Knipfer entered this world on January 22, 1953 in Covington, KY to the late Arthur Edward and Billy Louise Perry Knipfer. He was a well-loved “Child of God”, who loved sharing God’s Word and being a true and genuine witness for the Lord. He made his triumphant transition to Glory on Wednesday October 2, 2024 with his eyes looking toward Heaven. Bro. Knipfer grew up in Burlington, KY and joined the U. S. Air Force, proudly serving his country during the Vietnam War. On August 21, 1999 he was united in marriage to the former Mary Ann Clark, she survives. Thomas was an avid hunter and fisherman; he enjoyed collecting guns and coins, loved exercising his talents in woodworking and had a special appreciation for music.
