Mildred K. Knapp

February 11, 1926 - April 14, 2020

Mildred Katherine (Sowder) Knapp, 94, of Ravenna, and formerly of Sebring joined her husband of 61 years, Harold George Knapp, on Tuesday, April 14, 2020 at Woodlands Health and Rehabilitation Center in Ravenna. Born as Letha Mae Jarman on February 11, 1926 in Hillsboro, Illinois to John Earl and Dorothy Lucille (Uhlry) Jarman, she was adopted by Ray and Hannah Sowder in 1929. Mildred lived in Sebring most of her life moving to Ravenna recently to be near her daughter. Mildred was employed at Revco as a salesclerk for many years. Mildred loved to read. She was an avid Cleveland Indians fan and Roberto Perez was her favorite. Survivors include her daughter, Bonnie (Paula) Knapp of Ravenna; three sons, Brett of Sebring, Brian of Atwater and Barry Knapp of Sebring; five grandchildren, Brandi (Josh) Smallwood, Sarah (AJ), Samantha (Jake), Brian (Katelynn) Knapp Jr., and Nicole McElwain; six great-grandchildren, Jocelynn, Aidan, Annistyn, Asher, Madison and Brayden; and several nieces and nephews. Preceding her in death were her husband, Harold George Knapp on December 29, 2009; two granddaughters, Kristin and Karah Cole; two great-grandchildren, Brandon Cole and Allison Beckett; a sister, Sylvia Martin; a brother, Richard Studt; and her parents. A memorial service will be held at a later date. Thanks to all the Woodlands Staff for their love and care you gave to our mom. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Woodlands Comfort Corner Activities, 6831 N. Chestnut St., Ravenna, OH 44266. You are invited to view Mildred's tribute wall, offer condolences and share memories at www.sharerfuneralhome.com. Arrangements are by the Sharer-Stirling-Skivolocke Funeral Home.
