RIP Chubby

I used to Fly Delta to california every 2 weeks when working in the oil patch and also flew up to Nova Scotia and when I was working for the government ran into Chubby at a couple of terminals and he always was cordial and want to buy me dinner or lunch , He was a great guy and will be missed

To the family and friends of James Knight:

I am sorry to here about your loss. I enjoyed working with James in Allentown, Pa; The things that I most remember about James was his sincereness, caring, and fairness toward others. He always seemed to see the best in people. I will always be grateful for the opportunity he gave me in creating a supervisor position because he felt I worked hard enough and deserved it. May God bless the ones you left behind and keep you safe and by his...

James made several contributions to Louisville International Executive Staff meetings held monthly for the airport/airlines managers council. He was missed when he retired from Delta Air Lines. James always had a good story and kept the council entertained. Good by good buddy. All of your SDF friends will miss you!

I miss my friend.. If you knew him, you loved him.. If you didn't know him, well, I'm sorry for you.. Never met a stranger and always a Sweetheart.. Love you, Chubs
Sweet dreams, my friend...

We are shocked and saddened at the news of James' passing. We considered him a wonderful friend during his years here in Louisville and will miss his engaging smile, quick wit and personality, and, of course, a skill at hosting parties second to none. He will certainly leave a whole in the lives of all that he touched but leaves us with fond memories that can only bring smiles of our times together. We reach out to his family with prayers of comfort and love.

I was a Supervisor with Delta in Allentown when James was our Station Manager. He did many good things for our station and I enjoyed working with him -- he was a good man and I'm sorry to see him go. My sympathies with the family and may God Bless you all.

Prayers for his family. He was a wonderful person in school and always so kind. Class of '70
