Thomas Van Dyke King

Sorry to learn of Tom's passing. I was his bass player and "contractor" of sorts in the year or so before he started recording those CDs. He had me (and a couple other musicians that I'd bring) over to his home to play through the old jazz standards and help him get his "drum chops" back up to snuff. On our breaks, Barbara would serve us cookies and drinks and Tom would tell us great stories about his service in the Marine Corps, his drumming days in college, and even that amazing story about...

My name is LuAnn, I am the youngest child of Hope Taylor, born 1928... Whom skated with your mom...I found this cool photo of Barbars Ann Scott in 1944 when she and mom were friends in Lake Placid...I will hold on to this photo for a while so if you are interested in obtaining it, please call me at 904/307-5378.. I live just south of Jacksonville and found it sad mom did not know your parents were living so close to us...I am not looking to gain anything from you but I would like to not throw...

Having known Tom as my boss, as a colleague and a friend/mentor for 40 + years, I was very sorry to hear of his passing. My sincere condolences to his family during this sad time.

He was a highly accomplished business executive and leader who was very successful in every endeavor he undertook....I gained valuable experience and learned a great deal from him. In addition, his civic and charitable activities were unequaled and there was never a bigger and better booster of...

Very sorry to hear about the recent passing of Tom. I have wonderful memories of him and his lovely wife, Barbara Ann and all the glittering galas and ice skating events we shared together over the years. My deepest condolences to his family. May he RIP.

What a GREAT LOSS of a great man who did so much for others. When he lived in Chicago we saw each other at many events. He was good friends with my boss and he never ever forgot to send me his newest CD and I loved them all and he always sent an extra one for my Dad who loved his music.

A wonderful, kind hearted man. The greatest boss anyone can have. As he would say "Heaven Is Our Home"! He is now with his beloved Barbara Ann King.......R.I.Heaven

A good man, a good boss.

Tom - It is with great sadness to hear of your passing. But I know you are happier now to once again be with Barb. You were such an elegant pair. Truly wish we could have done another session -"Just One More Time!"

My condolences to the King Family on the passing of your Father, Father-in-Law and Grandfather. I met Mr. King on a number of occasions when he attended Canadian Figure Skating Championships with Barbara Ann. I will remember Mr. King for his friendly, caring and pleasant manner. May he Rest in Peace.
