Not sure what to say?

I just heard the news. Very sad. Mr. & Mrs. King helped save a lot of young boys including me. Mr. King never gave up on me and the whole rest of my life was so much better for it. My condolences to Virgie, Larry, Greg, Mike & the family.

Mr. and Mrs. King were the parents that I never had, I am a better person today for having them in my life. Mr. King taught me respect, good work ethics and habits. Perhaps, that's why I get up at 5:30 a.m. since high school. I will always treasure our memories at MHS.
God bless you Mr. King; my deepest sympathies and love,
Wesley Gilberto '85
& Family

I never had the privilege of meeting Mr. King but I have heard many, many stories. Mr. and Mrs. King helped to shape my husband, Randy Smeltzer, into the wonderful man I know today. Randy was in the King's home during his time at Milton Hershey. He speaks very highly of the Kings and the impact they had on his life. God Bless You Mr. King for all you did to touch the lives of so many youngsters.

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

I remember many good times spent driving the ponies. Or just gathering together to play cards.
