Dennis King

Post by Paul King »

Oh how our world has been shattered. Friday evening our brother Dennis King passed from this life to a much better home. He was 70 years old and had battled health issues the last 3 to 4 years. He was the Pastor at their church and was also a pedal steel guitar player. Such a great man with great personality and a big cut up. I will say too that he and Judy were married for 45 plus years and she is just devastated. She and my sisters are my biggest concern during this time. RIP my brother and we will see you again.

Paul, I didn't know your brother, but knew of him. I am so sorry for your loss. He sounds like he was a credit to his music and his maker (a pedal steel player is certainly a God given talent) and pretty rare to have two in one family. Your family was certainly blessed.

Again, so sorry......... Our loss, God's gain.

RIP & PIP Dennis.....heaven will sound a bit sweeter now.

Saturday morning we laid our brother Dennis King to rest. Hard to believe he is gone from us. The service was wonderful. So many friends messages were read, all 8 siblings wrote something to be read and the message was wonderful. Life goes on but we will sure miss him and all the jokes he told and just being funny. RIP Dennis King, I love you and always will. I will see you on the other side one day.
