Larry Knapp – 1942 ~ 2023
It is with saddened hearts that we announce the passing of Larry Knapp, on April 25, 2023, at the age of 81. He is survived by his loving wife of 62 years Merrilee and sons Larry (Sue) and Tim (Sondra). Grandchildren Jessica, Lars, and Alexa brought Larry his greatest joy! He was immensely proud of each of them and their accomplishments.
Larry was a retired District Fire Chief of the Scarborough Fire Department (#213). Larry started with Scarborough Fire in March of 1962, served for 32 years, and retired in December 1993. Larry enjoyed 30 years of retirement.
Beyond a Husband, Brother, Father, Grandfather, Uncle, and Cousin he will also be remembered as a curler, hockey, and baseball coach, friend, and co-worker. He led by example that hard work was essential to success. His final years were hampered by mobility issues but he was always quietly supporting Family and Friends.
There will be no funeral services.
Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends from all our Fire Fighter Retiree Groups.
In Solidarity,
Retired Toronto Fire Fighters Association TPFFA – L-3888
