Steven was well known and respected in his unique line of work. He spent almost 30 years working for cemeteries and crematories in and around Richmond & Hampton Roads. Steven was known for his brutal honesty and sense of humor. There was never any question where you stood with him and you were guaranteed to laugh at almost anything he said. Though he had a passion for most heavy metal music, Metallica was his first love. He loved fishing and was a lifelong sports fan, especially of the Washington (Redskins) Football Team, Boston Celtics, Duke Blue Devils basketball and Notre Dame Fighting Irish football.
Steven is preceded in death by his parents, Nell and Linwood Knight. He is survived by his son, Steven Knight, Jr. (Bianca); loving partner, Regina Owen; bonus daughter, Amber Hollen; bonus son, Joey Hollen; grandsons, Liam and Wyatt; sisters, Susan Knight (Keith) and Bonnie Friedoff; nieces, Kristie and Aiyanna; nephews, Brian (Kayleigh), Jayden, Aiden and Jordan; and cousins, Michelle (Brian), Sarah, Brandon and Jaxon.
A service will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, October 1, 2021 at Nelsen Funeral Home, 4650 S. Laburnum Ave., Richmond, VA 23231.
