Mr. King, was known for his soft interview style. In that type of industry I believe a person like that is a rare find. King will truly be missed. I believe a fitting comforting scripture for a man like him is Romans 12:15 “Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep” . I pray the family is able to find true comfort during such a hard time.

To the family, many, many friends, colleagues and fans of this wonderful man Mr. Larry King fine comfort with you during this difficult time in your lives. May you find comfort in your wealth of fond memories together. May Almighty God in the Heavens comfort your hearts with peace and loving kindness as you cope with this precious loss in your lives. Thank you for Mr. Larry King's contribution to television as a well-known talk show host who was the star of CNN’s “Larry King Live” for 25 years, interviewing a wide variety of prominent people. He will be missed but not forgotten.

I have listened to his shows over the years. Even some of his ad campaigns. For all the journalists out there...never stop speaking what you want to let the audience know..in public television or radio or on paper. This is what I have noticed throughout his time on television. Prayers to his family and associates throughout the years. God bless all of you.

I met Larry King at the Gainesville High School graduation when he was there as the speaker for his granddaughters graduation. I saw him backstage and asked him. " What is the best way to get into radio. His response to me was "Knock on Doors" he was such a great man to talk to. He said to me also his favorite President to interview was Ronald Reagon. I'm so thankful to have gotten to meet him.
