Prior to moving to Hartland, she lived in Waukesha, WI, for 40 years, and previous years in Genesee Depot, and Genesee, WI. She loved her family, and since the passing of her late husband, of 27 years, Robert (Bob) Knuth) in September 2015, her family became the center of her world. Monica and Bob, loved to travel many places together, and loved to dance. She will be deeply missed by her family, and friends.

The family would like to extend a very warm heartfelt thank-you, to the caring staff and volunteers, of Hartland Terrace, who welcomed mom, and us in as family, in April 2021.
She will be missed by many, and as she would say to us lately, "It is, what it is". Mom gave it her all, these past few months.
