Charles King
June 2, 2023Rev. Charles “Chuck” David King, 88, dedicated husband, loving father, grandfather, and friend to so many, passed away unexpectedly Tuesday, May 30, 2023 and now rests in the arms of Jesus.
Chuck (the name most people knew him by), was married to Lois “Yvonne” King, for 67 years. He graduated from Escanaba High School in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and joined the Air Force in 1954. After marrying in 1956, it wasn’t long before Chuck got “Saved to the bone,” and his family would never be the same.
Chuck never met a stranger, and every person he encountered became a close friend, a colleague, or someone he could pray for. He loved to pray for people and saw many miracles during his ministry. He was a prayer warrior. Above all else he loved the Lord and His Word. He pastored for over 50 years (mostly in Michigan) and did missions work all over the world.
He loved his children and grandchildren and involved himself in their lives whenever possible. He was either ice skating, going to ball games, playing basketball, listening to their musical abilities, bowling with them, or attending their graduations.
Chuck left a godly legacy for all of us! His favorite song was, “Something Got Ahold of Me.” Well, God did, and He never let go!
