Not sure what to say?

To Lynn, Tara, Bobby, Austin & all the King family, Please accept my sincerest condolences. I very much enjoyed working for your family as a Nanny, and was privileged to be able to spend considerable time with Bob, listening to his stories, advice and humor. As so many have already said, he was larger than life, and lived that life to the fullest. He was so devoted to his wife, daughters and grandchildren. I am blessed to have known such a man. You are all in my thoughts and prayers at this...

Sending thoughts and prayers to the King family. I have so many great memories of Mr. and Mrs. King. I can vividly see Mr. King sitting in his living room reading his newspaper. The King's house was my second home in high school and they will always have a special place in my heart.

Sending my love to the King Family! So lucky to know your family. Hugs to all!

I met Bob King when I was 16 years old. His brother Roger was my best friend. Bob was the oldest of 6 amazing brothers and sisters. Mr and Mrs King would be very proud of the family Bob and Lynn raised. God bless him.

I joined KingWorld in early 1984 and, opened up the New York office with bridge chairs from my apartment. Didn't have a desk for a week. What I did have was a mandate from this guy by the name of Bob King who told me to build a media department selling advertising. Bob, like a few other King's was larger than life (literally twice my size!) and, was one of the most charming, gregarious, willful, powerhouses that I had ever met. I stayed at King World for 26 years and, loved working with Bob...

Robin and Family:

I had the privilege of working at Leo Burnett/Starcom for twelve years (Syndication). I learned a lot over that decade. I was trained by the best. I was also called on by the best in the business. I have to say...King World always stood head and shoulders above the competition. They were always first, always prepared, always honest. We understood we were all at the same dance...just on different sides of the dance floor. In my experience, this kind of wisdom and...

Robin and family,

During my twelve years at Leo Burnett/Starcom (Syndication Desk), I learned a lot. I learned so very much from LBCO. management and in equal measure, from the vendors. After all, "we were all at the same dance...just on different sides of the dance floor". King World was always tough --but fair. Sounds a lot like your dad. King World was in a league of their own; always first, always prepared, always honest. In my experience, the pursuit of excellence typically...

Bob hired me at The Television Program Source.it was my first job in the TV syndication business. He was an excellent teacher and mentor! I am still in the TV syndication business today at Warner Bros. Sending sincere condolences to his entire family.

Father's Day at Baltusrol with Mom

Dear Grandpa,

I am not exactly sure where to begin. i appreciate so much all you have done for me, from letting me live with you to all the advice you have given me along the way. Advice I will use everyday. I will miss talking about life with you, listening to your stories, being in Bay Head, ranking our top 5 NBA players of all time, talking about our sports bets (sorry Mom), the NFL, Golf and so much more. But above all I will miss your insight on life. I know I was not the most...
