Kevin Joseph King was

educated in Kenmare, gra-

On July 2, 1982, Kevin

a time. The couple later
divorced.
Kevin was united in

on November 26, 1994
and together they had
three sons, Spencer,
Tanner, and Andrew.
They made their home in
Coulee, ND, where they
raised their four sons.
Kevin was a lifelong farm-
er and was happiest when
he was working with the
land alongside his family.
He was the fourth genera-
tion of the King family to
farm the family home-
stead, and was proud to
pass the legacy onto the
next generation.
Kevin enjoyed many
years of fishing, going for
pontoon rides and time
spent with family and
friends at Deep Water Bay
on Lake Sakakawea. Kevin
enjoyed following his
sons’ sports activities, and
it was the highlight of
many evenings. He always
looked forward to hunting
season in Coulee, fishing
trips to Canada with
friends, and ski trips to
Montana with his family.
He spent lots of time play-
ing cards and cribbage.
The time spent with his
sons was priceless. He
had an incredible amount
of patience, and it showed
as he taught his sons
throughout his lifetime.
Kevin was baptized and
confirmed at St.Anthony’s
Catholic Church in Don-
nybrook.
He was an active
member of Trinity Luth-
eran Church, rural Ken-

grandpa, brother and
friend and will be missed
