Kevin Lee King, age 60 of Noblesville, Indiana was called home on October 15, 2018. He was born in Lebanon Indiana on January 8, 1958 to Marvin and Wyoma Jean King. He was the 7th of 10 children.
Kevin met the love of his life and sweetheart, Tamera King [Dennemann] in 1977 and they were married for 38 years.
Kevin lived most of his life in Central Indiana including Greenfield and Shirley and several years in sunny Florida. He was a hard worker and put in many years with IMI and Fluid Waste Company. In his free time he was rarely idle. He took great satisfaction in helping others and never met a stranger. He loved spending time with family, boating, fishing and being on the water with the sun on his back and smile on his face.
Kevin is survived by his wife Tami King; his children Jennifer Cotton (Shawn), Kelly Craig (Justin) and Casey King (Shallen); his brothers Rick and Terry King; his sisters Rhonda Leach, Vicky Mars, Julie Burcham, Becky Hurst and Andrea King and his eleven grandchildren whom he lovingly had a nickname for each.
He was a selfless and beloved husband, brother, father, grandfather, and friend to many; prankster, storyteller and good humored to all.
He is preceded in death by his mother Wyoma Jean King, Father Marvin King, Step Mother Helen King and brothers Buddy and Mark King.
A Celebration of his Life and memorial will be held on Friday, October 19th at Indiana Funeral Care, Harry W. Moore Chapel, 8151 Allisonville Road, Indianapolis, IN 46250. from 2pm – 4pm. All friends and family are welcome to attend.
Visitors are encouraged to bring a favorite photograph, memorabilia or written memory of Kevin to be displayed and shared during this time. Memorial contributions would be preferred but any expression of sympathy and remembrance is appreciated.
Your life was a blessing. Your memory a treasure. You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure.

Met Kevin and the family when they lived here in Florida yrs. ago. My 2 daughters were best friends with his 2 daughters. They lived around the corner. He was a awesome person and loved his family. My girls loved going over because Kevin & Tamie always made them feel like family. May he RIP.

Kevin L King has been a mentor to me from when I first met him at age 15 and working for him at IMI he has taught me a lot over the years and I owe a lot to that man. He is one of the reasons I have maid it to where I am today. Over the years we have became best of friends and no matter what he has always been their for me bringing joy into everything he’s been apart of. Their has never been a dry moment with him he has alway been able to shed sunlight on any situation. He has been a big part in my family all my kids love him he alway maid it a point to get each one of them to laugh each time he was out. Their are so many great memories with kevin from fishing to jokes around work. During the summer time the water hoes was always a joke waiting to happen I could never keep anything important on me cause I knew at some point in time he would be waiting around the corner with it waiting on me. He maid it fun coming to work and brought joy to all of us. I will miss him greatly but he will never be forgotten
Don and Donna Smith and family says
Kevin and Rick came to work for Don Smith when they were just pups. Our whole family came to love them and feel like they were part of our family. Even though we have only seen Kevin a few times in the last several years, we’ve always had a special place in our hearts for him and Rick. We are so sorry to hear of Kevin’s passing. Our deepest condolences to all of his family.
