It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Michael David King on Dec. 1, 2013 at Ponderosa Pines in Kamloops, B.C.
Mike was born in Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops and he grew up in Bridge Lake, B.C. Initially he worked in construction, later he worked with heavy equipment constructing and maintaining roads throughout B.C.
Mike was quite personable and could converse readily with anyone. He enjoyed acquaintances and friends the length and width of B.C. He enjoyed a good laugh and could laugh at himself as well as others. He was generous with his time and energy and was readily available to assist anyone in need. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
