Welcome Our 2025 Recipients – The McKnight & Morris Families

The Board of Directors would like to welcome four new recipients from two families to our organization as our 2025 recipients. Join us at the 13th Annual Walk at Chestnut Hill College on June 14, 2025. For more information and to register click here.

The McKnight Family

Seamus (2.5, soon to be 3) and Blaise (1) McKnight are the sons of Ryan and Colleen from Springfield, PA. On October 29, 2023, Ryan passed away suddenly, leaving behind his family one month before Blaise’s birth. A devoted father and son, Ryan’s memory lives on through his family and community. Colleen and Ryan met at Penn State University and quickly became inseparable. Ryan worked in sales previously for Burkholder Brothers Landscape Company and had just switched fields to work with Cintas at the time of his passing.

The Morris Family

Earl (12) and Marion (soon to be 10) are the children of Stephen and Bonnie Morris from Warminster, PA. Natalie (25) will also be welcomed into the BHSM community as we support her younger siblings. Stephen was part of the International Union of Operating Engineers Local 542 and worked for Danella Companies in Plymouth Meeting, PA. He loved the outdoors, hunting, fishing, camping, and more. A kind soul, Stephen was known to help those around him, whether it was home improvement projects or just a simple errand.
