WAUNAKEE - Angeline "Angie" Frances Knipschield, 79, passed away peacefully while under hospice care at Waunakee Manor on Monday, June 20, 2016. Angie was born in Waukon, Iowa on July 5, 1936, the third child of Frank and Lucille Rowan. As a child, her family moved quite often throughout Iowa and Wisconsin.
