According to French media reports, a large tree branch fell on top of Knight and several other individuals at the festival, although he was the only one not to survive.
A GoFundMe page was established by Joanne Allen, the sister of Knight’s longtime partner, Hayley Wright.
“Hayley is now living her worst nightmare and facing life without Tony, her soulmate,” Allen writes.
“She is in Bouillac having to deal with the difficulties of Tony being an Englishman with Australian residency living in France, arranging a funeral, covering hospital expenses, meeting police detectives, doctors and the mayor, visiting the accident site and sorting Tony’s estate, all while experiencing a crushing amount of grief and disbelief in a foreign country.”
