Dolores Marie Abbott, affectionately known by many as Marie Knight, passed away
peacefully on November 15, 2026.
Marie was born in Connecticut on January 27, 1968. She traveled to numerous places
throughout her life and was known and loved widely by many. At the time of her passing, she
resided in the community of Paducah, KY.
Marie touched many lives as she passed through this world and sprinkled her glitters of love
and hope. She was a beautiful, quirky woman known to be a force of nature and a woman of
extremes, as well as for her kind heart and inspiring spirit. Marie was hard-working and
excelled at anything she put her energy into. She was a glimmer moment manifested; she
absolutely sparkled.
She is survived by her husband, Robert Abbott, her two daughters, Katelynn Oglesby and
Hannah Knight, her granddaughter, Sa’Myah Knight, her brother, Conrad Siat and her mother,
Marie Bills-Busson. She will forever be loved and carried in our hearts.
The family invites all who knew and loved Marie to join us for a Celebration of her Life on

collectively. The service will be held at Lindsey Funeral Home in Paducah, KY.
