Not sure what to say?

I remember when I told him about a big band playing at the Montague band shell. We talked all the time about when he was in a band. He was 98 and went to the band shell and started walking up to the stage. He was having a little trouble getting up on stage so I helped him up and once up there sang a couple of song´s.

Dear Marilyn and Ron,
We will always remember the special times we shared with the King's and White's on Sanibel Island. Although we can't be there at this time, we want you to know we are thinking of you and your family.

Our deepest sympathy to the family of Dexter. He has left quite a mark in the White Lake area and will surely be missed! He was an icon and has left quite a legacy...on behalf of our family: you will be kept in our prayers....the Sagan family....

My mother,Jewel,will miss Dexter. When mom lived with Becky he would come visit and bring divinity and play cribbage. He called her once in a while since she had moved permanently to Wisconsin. It was always a joy to hear from him. She was quite saddened by his death. I believed everyone who came in contact with Dexter came away a much richer person. I believe he passed on that same attitude to all of you.

We were so blessed to have known Grandpa King. He was a gift to many and will certainly be missed. May his goodness reflect in our hearts and actions.
Love and prayers,
Ernie and Seconda Addicott

Our deepest sympathies go out to the entire King clan.
