In Memory of Steven E. Knoke

My father was a wanderer for most of his life. With the help family, friends, and a wonderful online community (Good News Network), full of kind and caring people, we were able to fund my father's funeral. He was a traveler, a wanderer, a kind homeless man, an artist, a poet, a brother, a son and a friend.
 
Because we have gone over our initial goal any and all further donations will go to homeless veteran resources. I'm in contact with our local VA and reaching out to Eric Grumdahl, The Special Adviser for Ending Veteran Homelessness, in order to find the best resources/ charities to contribute any overages toward. There will be an update soon. Thank you all so very much.

For more information on Dad's story: 
We were blessed recently with an article; written by a lovely woman who took a moment to talk with my dad. It's because of this article that we can see a glimpse of who he was in his missing years. Here is a link for a peek into the kind of man my father was during his travels: https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/lady-feeds-homeless-man-twice-after-he-shared/
