Robin Knight Obituary
Robin Knight was a kind, compassionate, and generous man who continually stretched his comfort levels just a little farther each day to be a better Christian, father, neighbor, a better human being, and a better partner to his beloved.
He was not only a great enthusiast and collector of automobiles and locomotives, vintage pottery, and all things Pennsylvania-related, but he was also a collector of the many hearts he touched and leaves behind:
His one-and-only Rita, who filled his final years with love, joy, and youthful adventures;
His eldest daughter and son-in-law, Buffy and Keith, who never tired of his stories about the past;
His only son, Bill, who brighten his day with each phone call;
His daughter, "Holly Beep," who loved to endlessly ride the country roads with him; and
More wonderful grandchildren (Grant, Isaac, Shelly, and Susie) and great-grandchildren (Candy, Damien, Lyli, Mikey, Owen, and Sean), extended family, and friends than any of us could hope to have in our lives.
Robin, Dad, Grandpa ... we will miss you more than you can know, and we will carry your spirit and your good heart into the future with us.
All services were private.
