I never met my aunt Rita Knepple. All I know is that about her is that she was the youngest of the Knepple family. She was never married, and took care of my Grandfather until his death in 1965. She was born October 24, 1913 and died July 31, 1998 at the age of 85. I guess she did not have a will so the powers to be used all of her assets and she was buried on Hart Island in a mass grave ( 268- Section ll Grave-45). There are 150 people in this grave, she is number 101. My heart goes out to all the people that have loved ones here. My aunt could have been interned with her mom and dad in Cypress Hills Cemetery. All I can add is this. It seems that GREED is more important then souls.
