Alton King Obituary
Born on February 25, 1941 in Westminster, Vermont, Alton was the son of Ronald and Martha King. He served in the U.S. Navy from 1960-1964 and worked as a builder in the area for decades, and was known for his work ethic and commitment to quality.
He is survived by his daughters, Denise Carlton (Dr. Adam Carlton) of Liberty Hill, TX and Tammy Scott (Brent Wainscott) of Tryon, NC; grandchildren Ben Carlton, Caroline Christensen, Elisabeth Carlton, Olivia Carlton, Caleb Scott, Autumn King and Lauren King; sisters Dolores (Reg) Sylvester, Cheryl Aplin, & Frances Brochu; multiple nieces and nephews; dear friend Carolyn Holt, and ex-wife, Donna (Martin) King, mother of his children.
He was predeceased by sons Brian W. King and Timothy S. King.
He instilled in his children the values of kindness, integrity, hard work and the importance of family.
Alton had a passion for building and gardening and was a lifetime Boston Red Sox fan. He found great joy in fishing, hunting, and spending time with family and friends.
Known for his warm smile, dry sense of humor and kindness, Alton touched the lives of all he encountered.
His legacy of love will live on through the memories of his family and friends. A committal service and celebration of life will be held at a later date.

I´ll always remember uncle Alton for having a big smile on his face and he was a very hard-working man he always pitched in to help his mother. Grandma came out when he could when she was alive. He was a great son a great father. He was a great man and he will be sorely missed
