Neil Knowlton Jr.

Neil Hunter Knowlton, Jr.

31 March 1940 – 1 December 2022

Neil was a devoted and loving father and grandfather, and we will miss him dearly. Though the world will not be the same without Neil, he will be lovingly remembered for his numerous acts of kindness, his dry wit and puns, his generosity as well as his receptive, compassionate ear. To the end, Neil touched the hearts of all those around him with his strong sense of character and his graceful bearing. Neil was a world traveler and an avid gardener and fisherman as well as a joyful, playful cook.

Neil is preceded in death by his parents Neil H. Knowlton, Sr.  and Rebecca Hope Knowlton; wife Margaret L. Knowlton; his twin brother, Robert Knowlton, who died at birth. He is survived by his daughter Ginger Knowlton and her children Marsden, George, and Winslow; son and daughter-in-law Nick (Sarah) Knowlton and their children Lauren, Libby, and Nash.

Neil’s life will be celebrated in a small, private gathering of family and friends.
