Randall Wayne Knight

“My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.” ‭‭John‬ ‭14:2-3‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Randall Wayne Knight, known and loved as “Randy” to many, was received into his glorious heavenly home, on Saturday, September 11, 2021. Randy was born on March 14, 1959 to the union of Earl and Clothilde Fryoux Knight. He met and married the love of his life, his beautiful bride, Darlene Clark, and were married for 43 wonderful years this October. Out of this marriage they had 3 beautiful daughters, Heather, Lindsey and Alicia. Randy enjoyed hunting, working in his yard, building guns, LSU tailgating (not so much the setting them up and taking them down part), and he adored spending time with his beloved family. After being diagnosed with lymphoma in 2009, he never took a day for granted. He never hesitated to encourage and uplift his loved ones, frequently sacrificing himself and his time, putting the needs of others before himself. He was declared officially in remission in 2019, and lived a wonderful 10 years post-diagnosis, making the most of every moment. He is survived by his beautiful bride, Darlene Clark Knight, his 3 daughters, Heather Zachary, and her children Cole, Cana, Londyn, Lucyanne & Bristol Zachary (their father Shane Zachary, whom he loved like a son), Bonnie Goyer (her father Robbie Goyer), his daughter Lindsey and his daughter Alicia Atwell, and her children Gabrielle and Aiden Atwell (their father Josh Atwell, whom he loved like a son) and his granddaughter Halle Bice, his brothers Jim (Jean) Knight, Bob (Pat) Knight, Jeff (Carol) Knight. He was also survived by sisters-in-love and their spouses Jennie (Jamie) Cannon, June (Harold) Barker and Teresa (Roger) Folse. Godsons, Cody Reed and Cory Hutchinson, his beloved cousin-in-love Cindy (Donald Ray) Brouillette, and so many nieces, nephews, great nieces, great nephews, friends and family whom he held near and dear to his heart.
