KNEPPER---Mildred “Millie” L., 85, Johnstown, formerly of Sidman, went peacefully to be with the Lord on September 10, 2025, with her daughter by her side. Born October 9, 1939, in Homer City and raised in Brookville, daughter of Kenneth C. and Vera M. (Greene) Stormer. Preceded in death by parents, soulmate and husband of 60 years, David A. Knepper, loving son, David A. Knepper, Jr., sister Vera E. Caldwell, sister Margaret Hudak, and brother Robert J. Stormer. Survived by her brother Kenneth C., husband of May, from Waldorf, MD, brother George R., friend of Kathy, from Brookville; children, John A. Knepper, husband of Karen (Kindja), Sidman and Sandra L. Murphy, wife of Scott, Boiling Springs; grandchildren, Samantha Hernandez, wife of Nicholas, Johnstown; Ashley Knepper, South Portland, ME; Cody Knepper, fiancé of Jordan (Burda), Sidman; Jon Knepper, Sidman; Logan Murphy, husband of Kaylie (Cronin), Newburyport, MA; and Connor Murphy, husband of Abigail (Slogosky), Phillipsburg; great-grandchildren, Louis Murphy and Jameson Murphy; sister-in-law Donna Herrlinger, wife of Scott, Waynesboro, VA; and extended family. Millie was a 1957 graduate of Clarion-Limestone High School. She was raised with an undeniable willingness to spread the Lord’s Gospel. She shared her faith as a Sunday School teacher and planted the seeds of spirituality wherever she went. She loved spending time with her true love and companion, David, and their children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, and to her family, will be remembered as the most dedicated mother and grandmother that God could have blessed us with. She enjoyed baking and cooking and always looked forward to being a hostess to all friends and family that visited her home. Millie was a great listener, trusted confidant, and was always cherished for her warm heart. She left behind a legacy of kindness that will be carried on by her loved ones and those whose lives she touched throughout her lifetime. The moments and times we have shared with her are very special memories and will be dearly cherished. While Millie will truly be missed here on earth, there is no question that Heaven gained another Angel.
