I AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. I AM SENDING MY DEEPEST CONDOLENCES AND HEARTFELT SYMPATHY TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY GEORGE
To the King family, the Bynum and Sumner family extend our sincerest condolences to all of you in your time of sorrow. For we know to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.
You will be missed auntie.
I've known Mother Shirley King since I was a young girl. We used to visit her church Mount Zion in Eastburg, North Carolina. She was an absolute angel sent down from heaven. She will be missed. She loved for me to bring her turkey wings from Piggly Wiggly or anywhere I can find the small ones. Love you, Mother King.
There aren't any words to express my heartfelt condolences to the Kibg family..Mama King has been an inspiration to my life since my Montgomery Ward days and into ministry..I'm so blessed to have so many great and precious memories. Rest well Mama King.
My prayers and condolences to the entire family. Aunt Shirley was such a sweet soul and will be missed.
On the behalf of the New Growth Missionary B.C. we offer our sincerest condolences. We pray for the swift aide and comfort of the Lord our God in this time of bereavement for the King Family and friends both immediate and extended. Know that there is no sorrow that heaven can not heal. I did not have the privilege of meeting Sister King personally, but have been blessed to have her son as one of the most talented percussionist in the land and above that a man of outstanding Christian Character. If a tree is known by the fruit that it bears, I can say with all candor that Sis. King has been an Oak of strength and a towering Cedar amongst Matriarchs for her family. So let not the bell toll for her without the triumphal drum beat of hope. For there is hope of a tree, that if it be cut down, that it will sprout again... God bless you, Sincerely Rev. Dr. John E. Graham, Pastor N.G.M.B.C.
