David King Obituary

David James King, 16, died September 18, 2009. David has gone to his eternal home in Heaven with our Lord Jesus Christ. While his life was short his impact will be long. He was the son of Sheri Cole in Denver, Colorado and George and Nicolette King of Cary, NC. Surviving are: his grandparents, George King, Sr. and wife, Carolyn; half sisters, Micah and Avery King. A memorial service and celebration of David’s life will be held 2:00 p.m. Sunday, October 4th at Apex Baptist Church, 110 South Salem Street, Apex, NC. A time of fellowship will immediately follow the service. The family has asked that dress be colorful casual attire as this is a celebration of life. Matthew 13:31-32 "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed which a man took and planted in the ground. Although this seed is smaller than all other seeds, when it is full grown it is larger than the garden plants and becomes a tree so that the birds of the air come and rest in its branches." Donations can be made to the Seeds of Mustard Ministry, memo David King Mission Fund. Donations will be taken at the memorial service or may be deposited into any First Citizens Bank, account # 000861553213. This ministry, which began as a result of David’s death, will aid children in the Dominican Republic in need of food, supplies and medical care.
