In Memory Of
Caryl Mae Knight
Caryl Mae Knight
d. May 1, 2021
Caryl Mae Knight passed away peacefully in Ft Collins on May 1, 2021.
Caryl was born on February 17, 1932 to Gladys (Shaffer) and Truman Beeman in Sherman, KS. Caryl attended Oswego High School where she met her future husband, Victor Wesley Knight. They were married on January 7, 1950.
As Victor was a Master Sargent in the USAF, the couple lived in various locations in the U.S. and Europe. In Phoenix, they adopted their only child, Michael in 1961. Upon Victor's retirement, the couple bought a farm in Newton, KS. Caryl continued her career in bookkeeping by working at the Harvey County Courthouse.
Caryl enjoyed sewing. She made incredible quilts for her family and close friends. She also made detailed doll clothes which she sold at craft shows but mostly gave away to some very lucky children.
Caryl is survived by her son, Michael, and his wife, Joanne, of Drake, Colorado and her three grandsons: Justin, Joseph, and Austin all living in Ft. Collins, CO.
A graveside service will be held at Fort Scott National Cemetery, Friday, May 7th.
