Our deepest condolences to the McKnight family at this difficult time. May God continue to strengthen the family thur this time off bereavement.

Lloyd & Barbara Harris

Mrs Queen Ester McKnight, I will forever remember you sitting on the first row of the church in the corner and as the pastor would preach, I can still hear you saying, "All right, all right". Your smile and laughter was contagious. We will truly miss you. Rest peacefully in the arms of God. My condolences to the family.

Hey, I'm Julisa, A friend of Julian, and former coworker. I pray that the family has peace that surpasses all understanding. That God's Love fills the void of losing a mother. Julian spoke highly of his mom and I can honestly say Job well done to both parents. He's a great person, a great leader, and an all around stand up guy. I admire his strength, kind heart, and integrity. His acts of service has been shown any many walks of life. I'm proud to know that him and his family stepped up for their mother in a time of need. That was an honorable act. I was hurt when he informed me of the circumstances. Seeing his strength in a time like this was a testament to who God is and the strength that God gives us while grieving. Ecclesiastes 3:1- 5 (KJV)

"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven." " A time to be born, and a time to die; A time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;" • "A time to kill, and a time to heal; A time to break down, and a time to build up;" • "A time to weep, and a time to laugh; A time to mourn, and a time to dance."

If we stay on that straight and narrow path we will reunite with those we love in heaven when that time comes. As of now cherish and hold on to every memory you can. You are loved and many people appreciate the man that your mother and father raised.
