Obituary of Arabella Knez

Miss Arabella Annelise Knez, 12, of Fort Erie, Ontario, unexpectedly and tragically passed away on Saturday, November 30th, 2024. Arabella was born in Billings, Montana on September 13th, 2012. She is survived by her father, Anthony Knez and mother, Sarah Knez, older sister, Hannah, and older brother, Meshach, with whom she resided with in Fort Erie, Ontario.  

In her short life, Arabella loved to be with family and everyone who met her loved her instantaneously. She had the sweetest smile, a contagious laugh and the most beautiful singing voice. Her inner joy seemed to shine the most when she could help others, always seeking an opportunity to lend a hand. She loved to draw, make crafts, and crochet hats, gloves and blankets to give away. Nobody had a knack quite like her when it came to catching birds. In her life she must’ve caught over 20 at least, and always released them in a safe place. She loved swimming, camping, and anything to do with outdoors. She often devoted her time to snuggling with her kitty cats, Sweetpea and Yoseph. An intelligent and caring young girl, Arabella has left us with heavy hearts and immeasurable tears to carry on with a large piece of our hearts missing. 

“Words cannot describe how much you mean to us, and nothing could ever lessen our love for you. You are loved beyond measure, and I will always thank our Creator for allowing us the gift of your precious life in ours my girl. May our Creator shine His face down upon you and have mercy on your beloved soul.”

(Psalms) 51:1
[1] Show me favour, O Elohim, According to Your loving-commitment; According to the greatness of Your compassion, Blot out my transgressions.

The Knez family wishes to thank everyone who has supported us through this difficult time. Services will be held at Benner Funeral Services on Thursday December 5th at 11am and burial will take place at Greenwood Cemetery.
