Bob Knight, one of The LOFT's founders and very dear friends, passed away over the weekend.

Since the founding of our center in 1983, Bob Knight has been a staple in our programs and events, where he has touched the lives of many.

Without visionaries like Bob, The LOFT would not be where we are today.

Bob was a beloved member of The LOFT's family. He will be greatly missed.

Along with his advocacy for the LGBT community, Bob was also a passionate advocate for historical preservation.
