Adam Douglas Knight, son of Douglas and Patricia Knight born November 18th, 1977 went to be with the Lord on April 11th, 2026.
Through his 48 year journey of life, Adam left a legacy of resilience, boundless enthusiasm and love. Adam was known for his playful jokes he could crack at any second in any situation, the ability to light up a room and make anyone feel like they were family and welcome, and the way he loved so many so dearly. Adam dedicated his time being a loving son and brother, a supportive and loving father, uncle, grandfather, friend and mentor. Adam devoted his time to many commitments and adventures over the years from his time spent in the Army for the National Guard to his time spent as a local West Side Nut Club member. In addition to his grandparents, Warner and Virginia Knight along with Charles and Beulah Mayes.
