Donald Eugene Knobl, Sr., beloved husband of Eileen Ames Knobl, met his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, face to face in His kingdom on Saturday, March 11, 2023, at 12:40 a.m.

Don was born at home in Millersburg, PA, on October 20, 1941, to the late George and Hannah Wertz Knobl.

Don was a 1959 graduate of Millersburg High School, where he played football. He graduated from Bob Jones University with bachelor’s and master’s degrees. He later earned a bachelor’s degree from Millersville University. Don did his country proud in the Army Reserves from 1966 to 1972.

Don devoted most of his life to Christian Education and youth work, and was a beloved Bible teacher in both the classroom and adult Sunday School. He is the founding Principal of Lebanon Christian Academy in Lebanon, PA.

His main interest was his home, as he cherished his wife and patiently taught his children to be godly gentlemen. He will be greatly missed, and his memory will be forever cherished.

In addition to his loving and devoted wife, Eileen, he is survived by three sons, Michael, Daniel, and Donald Jr.; a sister-in-law, Ivy; and a nephew, Geoff.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his only brother, George Jr., in 2003.

A private memorial service will be held at a later date.
