ERIC KNIGHT

My grandfather owned a bakery on Rockaway Ave. Eric, my mother and my aunt were good friends. When my aunt past in 2020 I contacted Eric and told him who I was and we spoke for some time. Eric invited me to his place in NYC and said he may be leaving to spend time at his other location out on Long Island were I live. I was very excited to visit but unfortunately I became ill and spent many months in a nursing/rehab. I was hoping to see him and exchange photos because he was the only person...

I just found out about Eric´s passing. I had the opportunity to play trombone under his baton several times and he was absolutely fabulous as an arranger and conductor. The entire world will miss this great, talented man!!

Eric will always hold a very special place in my heart. From the time we spent in Dangerfield's when I was just getting started with my singing career to the symphonic program he designed and arranged, he will always be remembered as a dynamic, loving funny man. I can still hear his laughter! He wasn't just my arranger, he was loved like a member of my family.

We worked with each other at Wedo's Music for close to twenty years. What a talent, what a friend, always humorous and caring. Delightful nature and brilliant with languages as well as music. Every morning he did the Times cross word puzzle and timed it with his watch. He was also very entertaining. Wow, he will be misswed by many. Rest in peace.

At that time I was just starting out my pockets were empty and what he charge me for musical arrangements the paper that he wrote the music on, cost more than what he charged me. His musical arrangements helped me to get...
