Rebekah Joy King

Rebekah Joy King April 26, 1990 – August 2, 2010 Rebekah Joy King of Grand Junction is now dancing with her heavenly Father. Bekah died in a tragic car accident in Grand Junction at the age of 20 on August 2, 2010. Bekah was born on April 26, 1990 in Durango, Colorado, to Timothy and Debbie King. She had two very special friends in her sisters, Hannah and Sarah. She graduated from home school and was a student at Mesa State College who especially loved her dancing class. She worshiped God freely with her church family of Restoration Ministries of Grand Junction. Oh, and she loved our little family mutt, Maximus Rex. She had the soul of an artist. She loved dancing, drama, singing and writing. She was also quite a good volleyball player. She had a quirky sense of humor and a beautiful smile to match. She was one of the lucky few to get a job at Cabela's. She had this special talent for attracting a lot of wonderful friends. Her biggest challenge in her last days was figuring out what she wanted to do with her life. She is survived by her parents, Tim and Debbie King; her sisters, Hannah Cunningham and Sarah King; her brother-in-law, Phil Cunningham, all of Grand Junction; her grandparents, Hubert and Dessa King of Hurst, Texas; Alvis and Lou Stallard of Topeka, Kansas as well as a host of uncles, aunts and cousins scattered throughout the country. We will be celebrating her life at First Presbyterian Church, 3940 27 1/2 Road on Saturday, August 7 at 10:00 a.m. Thank you so much for all of the love poured out to the family from the community, especially from our church family of Restoration Ministries, but also from all of Bekah's friends from Applebee's, Cabela's and elsewhere. Instead of donations, just pick someone and demonstrate how much you love them. "A life lived well is more precious than a life lived long."
