Read MoreHello Rick,David and Leeann, Sorry for the late response. You guys ate certainly like second family to me. Mom had told me about your loss. I will NEVER forget all that your family has meant to me over the decades. I would not be who I am today without the influence of the King family. Thank you all!!! Mom King will be missed.

I was blessed to be in your home and at your dinner table many times in my youth! I loved the laughter in your home! The lazy Susan on the table, always a bowl of peas! Lol We always laughed about those peas and everone made fun of me hating them and I crack up loving them now. You were a safe haven for me. I thank for the hugs, laugh, loving advice and giving me my bff for life I love you, Sherry
