At A Later Date

HURON – William Odis “Bill” King, 77, of rural Mitchell (Huron), has finished his journey on earth this day, July 13, 2018.

Bill was born at Bryantsville on March 15, 1941, the oldest son of Charles William and Virginia Mae (Atchison) King.  He married Sharon K. Rollman August 21, 1968.

Bill grew up on Kings Ridge where he was taught the true meaning of love for family, friends, and God.  You would never meet a more kind or gentle man who loved people.  He enjoyed a good conversation, especially about hunting and guns.

Bill was a member of the Fairview Church of Christ.  He served several years on the board of the Port Williams Cemetery Association and was a lifetime member of the NRA.  He was a graduate of Huron High school, the Class of 1959.

There wasn’t much Bill couldn’t do with his hands. He was artistic and played guitar.  He retired from the City of Bedford.  Through his life he has farmed and was an over the road truck driver.

He left behind his loving wife, Sharon; sons, Mark Odis King (from a previous marriage) of Mitchell, Trent William (Kimberly) King of Mitchell,  and Toby Charles (Heidi) King of Mitchell; grandchildren, Master Sergeant Odis King, USAF, stationed in Spain, William Zachary Dee (Crystal) King of Bedford, Olivia Grace King of Louisville, Kentucky; step grandchildren, Corbin and Cadie Haley; and soon to be great grandson, William David “Liam” King; Bill’s siblings, Michael L. (Sheila) King of New Albany, Mississippi, Carolyn Sue (Fred) Lovelace of Harrisburg, Michigan, Martha L. “Boo” (Tim) Row of Huntsville, Alabama, Vonda M. King, of Bonham, Texas, and Vicki L. (Donnie) Lovelace of Rochester Hills, Michigan; stepsister, Arvetta Rosenbaum of Bedford; and uncle, Marvin (Patty) Atchison of Bedford.

His parents, Charles and Virginia; son, Trevor D. King; granddaughter, Crystal Nicole King; infant sister, Shirley Ann King; and brother, Hilliard W. King, preceded Bill in death.

Funeral service will be at 3:00 p.m. Monday, July 16, in the Memorial Chapel of Chastain Funeral Home & Cremation Center with his brother, Mike, officiating.  Final place of rest will be Port Williams Cemetery.

Friends may call from 1:00 p.m. until the service on Monday at the funeral home.

The best way to honor and remember my Billy is to do something kind for someone each day.

    Bill was a very good man who rose above the trials of life and always had a positive attitude. Trent and Toby are two of the finest men I know - testimony to Bill and Sharon's parenting. And now, Mr. King is in the presence of the King of kings.

    I did not know this man, but I do know the son this man raised. What the father passed on to the son, if only a measure, manifests into the character that all of us wish to emulate. He must have loved his son as I know his son loved him so. RIP Sir, you have left a firm hand at the helm...
