John King Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Watson Funeral Home & Memorial Park - Winchester on Feb. 23, 2026.
John F. King, age 65, of Winchester, Tennessee, passed away on Sunday, February 22, 2026, at his residence. Born on July 6, 1960, in Illinois, John was a man known for his gentle spirit and generous heart. He was a devoted member of the Jehovah's Witness congregation in Winchester, where he valued his faith and fellowship deeply. John proudly served his country as a veteran, a role he carried with quiet honor. In his personal life, he found joy in the simple things. He loved playing video games, going on walks, and watching WWE wrestling. His beloved cat, Princess, held a special place in his heart and was truly the love of his life. John was the kind of person who would give you the shirt off his back. His kindness and generosity touched those who knew him, and he will be remembered for his warm heart and caring nature. He was preceded in death by his parents. He is survived by his son, Johnathan King; and his cousin, Kenneth. A memorial service will be held at a later date. Watson Funeral Home & Memorial Park. 405 Sharp Springs Road, Winchester, TN 37398, 931-967-2345, www.watsonfhtn.com
