    I am sorry for your loss, please accept my sincere condolences. I hope the family will find some comfort and strength in Jesus promise of the earthly resurrection(Acts 24:15)and the renewed Paradise earth, where death will be no more and no family will mourn the death of a loved one.-Revelation 21:3,4;John 5:28,29;Luke 23:43. May GOD(Psalms 83:18)grant you peace and comfort now, during this grievous time.-Matthew 5:4.

    My deepest condolences and sympathy go to the family of this gentle soul. Heaven has surely gained an angel and I thank God for the priviledge to know Mr. King and to often be in his presence. To say he will be missed is an understatement. I thank God that he isn't stressed about hospitals, doctors, or procedures. Now you can rest.

    Family Know that Mr. King is a gentleman of the world; kind, caring and always willing to share in this game called LIFE. We are missing him dearly and know that he is no longer in this LIFE but now in NEW BIRTH LIFE! He has a brand news address, walk and driving a SWEET RIDE on golden streets. He has been reunited with FAMILY gone before. Eternal life is his. Just stay on the positive stride and we will all see him again in time. Sorrowfully Submitted

    To the family and friends: We're so sorry to hear you are mourning the recent loss of your loved one.  May you find strength  and comfort from the words of Psalms 46:1 which reads: "God is our refuge and strength, A help that is readily found in times of distress." Our loving God is there for us if we ask for his help (1 John 5:14). He didn't intend for us to grow old and die.  He thus has made the SURE promise of a resurrection RIGHT HERE ON EARTH when it is restored to a beautiful paradise (Psalms 37:9-11, 29; Acts 24:15; Isaiah 55;11). Can you see yourself welcoming back to life your loved ones? What a joy it will bring all of us.  You can go online to JW.ORG and find out more about this resurrection.
