With more lives than a cat, Lorne King of Perry’s Cove passed peacefully away at Pleasant View Towers, St. John's on Saturday, November 5, 2022, at the age of 74 years. Predeceased by parents: Alexander and Annie, sister: Sabina. Leaving to mourn, two sons: Jason (Amanda) and Chris; daughter: Robyn King; six grandchildren: Madalyn, Scarlett, Savannah, Taylor, Evangeline, and Anneliese; six great-grandchildren: Wyatt, Emmett, Finley, Hailey, Mason, and Kaiah; brother: Woodrow (Carol, deceased); also a number of nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends. Lorne was born in Perry’s Cove and grew up in Carbonear. He was as tough as they come being the last man standing, but was always first to give you the shirt off his back, especially if it was for the kids. He loved his grandkids dearly. Special thank you is extended to Dr. David Hood for always being there for Lorne and family, and for all the many things done outside the normal “Doctor” role. Lorne always lite up when talking about Dr. Hood. There will be no visitation or funeral service. Interment in the family plot with his mother and father at Bethany United Cemetery, Carbonear will be held in July of 2023. Further details to be announced.
