As a farmer, tractors were his passion, especially John Deere and Farmall tractors. Arthur was also proud to have served as a volunteer for the Highville Fire Co.

Knight Houston, wife of O. William, of Conestoga; and Elaine Marie Knight Graybill, wife of Herbert H., of New Providence. He is also survived by 12 grandchildren; 45 great-grandchildren; 1 great great-grandchild; 11 nieces and nephews; and one brother, Stanley Knight, husband of Victoria, of Washington Boro. Arthur was preceded in death by a son, Clair W. Knight and siblings: Claribell Miller, Victor Knight, and Hazel Fryberger.
