Kayla King

The Dragonfly Story

"In the bottom of an old pond lived some grubs who could not understand why none of their group ever came back after crawling up the stems of the lilies to the top of the water. They promised each other that the next one who was called to make the upward climb would return and tell what happened to him. Soon one of them felt an urgent impulse to seek the surface; he rested himself on the top of a lily pad and went through a glorious transformation, which made him a dragonfly with beautiful wings. In vain he tried to keep his promise. Flying back and forth over the pond, he peered down at his friends below. Then he realized that even if they could see him they would not recognize such a radiant creature as one of their number.

The fact that we cannot see our friends or communicate with them after the transformation, which we call death, is no proof that they cease to exist."

Kayla you will be missed. To the family please accept our sincere condolences on behalf of the University and all alumni who knew and loved Kayla.

I just learned of the news today and I'm speechless. Praying for your family, wife, daughter and friends during this difficult time. Kayla you were so sweet, so kind, so humble and so precious... while in high school... I can't remember a time when I saw you upset... you always kept a smile on your face. I'm certain that God has welcomed you with open arms into his kingdom while saying... "servant well done". Rest peacefully.

She was a beacon of light around campus (AAMU) and touched the lives of many. May her family and friends find comfort in sweet memories as they move through this life without her.

Sending my deepest, heartfelt condolences and prayers to the family and friends of Kayla. I met her while joining our Engineering Fraternity (Fall 2K13) From the very beginning, she embraced me as a sister, and I will always cherish that bond. I love you and miss you always. 💚🙏🏾
