I DON'T BELIEVE IT WOULD BE INAPPROPRIATE FOR ME TO SIGN MY HUSBANDS GUESTBOOK AT THIS TIME. BRO KING WAS A GOD FEARING MAN, AND THE PRIEST OF HIS HOME. BEFORE HIS HEALTH DECLINED, WE WORKED AS A TEAM, EVANGELIZING, PASTORING, AND MISSIONARY LEADERS OVER SIX STATES. OUR LIVES WERE FULLY DEVOTED TO GOD, AND WINNING SOULS FOR CHRIST. WHAT A JOURNEY ITS BEEN WITH BRO KING. I HAVE PRECIOUS MEMORIES TO CHERISH. I MISS HIM SO MUCH. ONE DAY WE'LL MEET AGAIN, JUST INSIDE THE EASTERN GATE. WHAT A REUNION. HALLELUJAH! THIS IS TO HONOR THE LOVE OF MY LIFE.
MISSING YOU HONEY,

Dear Grandpa King,
Although we never had the chance to meet, I heard so much about you from Grandma King. The love that was shared between the two of you was precious. I am happy that God came and took you from this world of pain and suffering. Walking the streets of Gold and in a new body. May God bless Grandma as she awaits her time. I am amazed at her love for God. She is an inspiration to all she touches!!!! With love from your Grandson in law, Bob
AUNT GINNIE, I'M SORRY TO HEAR OF THE DEATH OF VERNON AND IT TOUCHES ME BECAUSE I JUST LOST MY DAD LAST APRIL 18TH. THAT IS STILL WITH ME TODAY. I WISH I COULD TURN THE HANDS OF THE CLOCK BACK AND UNDO SO MANY UNPLEASANT THINGS IN MY LIFE, BUT I CAN'T. WE ALL MUST MOVE FORWARD IN LIFE. I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M SAYING HERE. I WASN'T REALLY CLOSE TO VERNON, BUT I CAN STILL RELATE BECAUSE I NO LONGER HAVE MY DAD.

Mom ... You know my heart and it is so broken for you. I was working in the wood shed today and thinking about how Pops had spent that summer putting wood up for us. It kept us warm for two winters and everytime I through wood in the stove, I thought of his sacrafice. I see bird houses in the kitchen of your little apartment here and they were fashioned by Pops. He painted the birds and put his special touch on each one. His memory is all around here even though he lived down there. Yes, he drove me crazy sometimes, but I know he loved you so much and that is why I honor him and you today. I am so thankful for his love of Christ and of you. Absent from the body and in the presence of our Lord. May that thought bring you joy in this time of sorrow. I love you mom and Raymond does too ... May God continue to comfort and strengthen you.
With all our love, hugs and kisses,
Raymond & Sissy
Our sincere sympathy to you and all the family. You are loved.
My heartfelt prayers with you at this time of Grieving
