WINN- Lynda M. Knights, 55, of Winn, passed away peacefully August 17, 2020, surrounded by her loving family. She was born to the late Bernard Austin and Thelma Austin-Hamilton, October 24 1964, in Lincoln.
Lynda graduated from East Grand High School in 1983. She was happily married to her soul mate and loving husband Roland Knights Jr, for 38 years.
In addition to her husband, Lynda is survived by her daughter and best friend, Jessica Knights-Peters, along with her son-in-law Corey Peters and granddaughter Madison Lee, of Winn. She is also survived by her sister Bea Clendenning of Brewer, brother Roger Austin and wife Lori of Wytopitlock, sister Wanda Avery and husband Pee-Wee of Milford, sister-in-law Janet Austin of Springfield, as well many cousins, nieces, nephews, family and friends who became family. She was predeceased by her father Bernard, mother Thelma, and step-father Alric Hamilton, as well as her brother Bernard Austin Jr.
Lynda was an amazing cook, who loved family gatherings and holidays. Her smile lit up the room, with a laugh that just had a way of making you happy. She cared deeply about her family, and made a huge impact on everyone who was blessed to be a part of her life. Lynda also had a voice that was simply sent from heaven and she loved to sing. Whether it was singing along with her husband while he played guitar, or in the car with her daughter, her songs brought joy that will be treasured always. All of these things, and so much more will be missed dearly by all who knew and loved her.
A graveside service will be held Sunday August 30th, at 3pm at Wytopitlock Cemetery. A celebration of her life will be announced at a later date. The family asks that in lieu of flowers, you consider making a donation to the Lafayette Cancer Center 33 Whiting Hill Road Brewer, ME 04412
