Michael E. Knockwood, 57 years of age, passed away June 17, 2018 due to complications from Congestive Heart Failure due to diabetes.
Michael was a man who gave and helped everyone he came in touch with. He was known to all as "Uncle Mike", he really was the uncle everyone wish was theirs. He was a man of many traits, but most of all the family mechanic and the man who did the grilling at every family gathering. Michael spent many hours with his extended family the Lambert's, as they once own his favorite location "Lambert junk Yard."
Michael is survived by his sister, Martha Francis and husband Joseph, of Manchester; their children; grandchildren; and great grandchildren who were all part of Michael's daily life; sister, Louise Knockwood of Manchester; and brother, Danny "Joe" and wife Sandra Knockwood of New Brunswick, Canada; countless nieces, nephews, and extended family from P.E.I., Canada. He was also well known and loved by many in the Maritimes and Hobbema, Alberta, Canada.
Michael is predeceased by his parents, Madeline (Madge) and Frank Knockwood; sister, Yvonne Knockwood; and brother, Jacob Knockwood.
Michael had asked that his life be celebrated with a family and friends cookout. To honor Michael's wish, a cookout will be hosted in his memory on Sunday, June 24, 3:00P.M. at 91 Ruth Ave. Manchester.
