To Adele, Jimmy, Peter, Sean and their families: Jimmy will always be loved and remembered by ALL fortunate enough to have had him in their lives. He was an awesome, generous, and gifted man. There's a poem called Safely Home. If Jimmy could speak to ease your pain, we truly believe in our hearts he would say, "All the pain and grief is over, all the restless tossing passed, I am now at peace forever, safely home in Heaven at last." We love him and will miss him. You will all remain in our hearts and prayers. George & Gail Evangelista, Little River, SC

Jim was the VERY Best, as I too had shared fond memories with Jim & James Sr. as well as he had done with my Dad & his brothers back in tha Day ! Correct & perfectly said - "he will never be forgotton" Jim was an ICON all around & within the Berlin Community.
Both he & Adele were always together at every function I attended. He always had a pleasant word for you, and then that ear to ear grin ! Nothing was any bother to Big Jimmy as I nicknamed him in ROTARY while I shared alot of quality time away at functions, trips & on the golf course too ! He also taken care of my mother,
making her look great, as he lent me his shoulder & big hug when I needed !
Many memorable times even while playing in the wash board make-up band with Joe Levine, Graz, Jack, & others up in HERSHEY - ROTARY INTERNAT'L CONVENTION in PA.
He always played it up as ALL enjoyed his company & laughter as he taught me a thing or two . . . about enjoying Life in general & his club activities.
I also had the pleasure of sharing other real life experiences with his both sons Jim & Sean - I can truly vouch as I shared wonderful experiences with ALL [4] KNIGHT generations. GREAT Individual, Father , Family man - just one of the Best All Around !
He will be watching / listening as we ALL share & embellish his great memories!

"Little" Jimmy,
So many of my memories of your dad were when he was younger than we are now! I remember him at the Belair house and playing baseball in the field where your parent's home now sits. Your dad was always very kind to our family over the years and helped us through many difficult times, especially when my mother died. My father used to always tell me the story of how your grandfather paid him to tutor your dad, but that he would always have to catch him first! I am sorry that I cannot be there, but know that I am with you and your family in spirit.

I will always remember the phone conversation I had with him shortly after my Mom passed away. He was the most gentle and kind man, kept me calm, and for that I will always be grateful. He was truly an angel when I needed one. My condolences to the Knight family, and may you be consoled by all of your wonderful memories.

With current sadness comes good memories shared as Jim and I went throuigh the U.S. Air Force boot camp together, having joined in 1961. My heart goes out to all family and those who know him as I did. He put smiles into so many days for so many people. May all be comforted with the legacy he has left. Ron Nunnenkamp and Family

I was greatly saddened by the passing of Jim. When we lived in Berlin years ago he was one of the mainstays of the community. Our sons played baseball at "Knights field". He was a great friend and leader.
