In 1947 he married a beautiful Iowa girl named Cora L. (Reynolds) King and remained happily married for over 70 years. They had two children Janet E. (King) Federspill and Paul N. King. He is survived by his wife Cora, Son Paul. Known by all as "Bill" he graduated from Anita High School and immediately moved to Chicago, IL, and found employment with the RCA Corporation. His career was interrupted briefly by the Korean War where he served in the Army. First, training with the famed 101st Division "Screaming Eagles" and later, serving in Seoul, South Korea with 8th Army Headquarters where he attained the rank of Staff Sergeant.

He so enjoyed flying and flew his beloved vintage Beechcraft Bonanza (an airplane he meticulously restored himself) well into his 80's. In retirement, he also was involved in several volunteer organizations. He flew patients for "Angel Flight" whose members provide free air transportation for passengers in need of medical treatment far from home using their own private airplanes for free. He was President of his neighborhood association, served meals at Wheeler Mission, helped build homes for Habitat for Humanity, and spent hours upon hours in his basement woodshop crafting items that he mostly gave to friends and family or donated to various organizations. Bill was a longtime member of Allisonville Christian Church where he and his wife Cora served in many capacities and cheerfully volunteered to help with many church programs.
