Obituary of Arthur 'Art' Robert Knight

Passed away peacefully and surrounded by family at Parkwood Hospital, London, on Thursday, March 7th, 2019, in his 77th year. He will be sadly missed by his loving wife of 32 years, Cindy; by his children Cindra Kennedy (Steven), Robert Knight (Lisa), and Dianne Weibe (Jaime); by his step-sons Richard Swan (Elaine) and David Swan; and by 9 grandchildren: Kelsey Brown (Jeramie), Breanna and Jaxin Kennedy, Shane Knight, Rick and Mark Swan, Brandon, Nicky and Matthew Swan.
