Benjamin KNIGHT Obituary

With profound sadness, the family of Ben Knight, born 19 October 1974, announce his sudden death at home, Paraparaumu. Ben was the dearly-loved father and "best Dad ever" of his daughter Joy. He was the loving, and loved partner of Sararose Gregorowski.
Ben was the treasured second son of Anna Kerr and Barry Knight, the much loved brother of Adrian and Katie, Karis and Ben, Justin, and Amelia and Jason, and a dear uncle to his nieces and nephews. He was the former partner of Joy's mother Sarah Porter, and loved grandson of the late Giovanna and the late Patrick Kerr, and Alison and the late John Knight. A valued and appreciated colleague, and with his passion for our oceans and beaches, an inspirational leader of volunteers. Forever missed and remembered by his family and friends. Our grief is boundless. In lieu of flowers, donations to Ben's trust https://givealittle.co.nz/cause/bens-trust would be appreciated. A service to honor Ben's life will be held on Friday, 25 July 2025 at 11.00am, at the Kāpiti Boating Club, 2 Marine Parade, Paraparaumu Beach, followed by private cremation.
