Betty Jane Knight, the daughter of Mildred Charlotte (Rounds) and Gerald Allison Buffington, was born on July 28, 1925 in Council Bluffs, Iowa. She grew up and attended school in Glenwood, Iowa, graduating as Valedictorian of the Class of 1942 from the Glenwood High School. Betty attended Simpson College and Buena Vista College and obtained her teaching degree in Special Education. Betty married Edward Wightman Knight, son of Edward William and Mary Fern (Wightman), Knight of Malvern, Iowa, on June 15, 1952 in Glenwood. They made their home in Malvern and their marriage was blessed with three sons, Matthew Edward, Mark Allison, and Theodore Luke. While her husband Edward owned and operated Collins Drug Store in Malvern, Betty kept busy raising their family and teaching at the Malvern schools, then later at the Glenwood State School and Area 13 until her retirement. Betty was a member of the United Methodist Church in Malvern, church choir member, and a scout den mother. She enjoyed watching birds, especially cardinals, flowers and spending time with her friends and especially with her family. Betty and Edward had been married almost 42 years when Edel died on June 10, 1994 at St. Joseph Hospital in Omaha, Nebraska. Betty continued to make her home in Malvern until the summer of 2006, when she moved to Morton, Illinois, to live near her oldest son, Matthew. Betty passed away on November 23, 2018 at the St Francis Medical Center, in Peoria, Illinois after a short illness. In addition to her husband, Betty was also preceded in death by her parents.
