SCOTT ANTHONY KING
Feb. 26, 1962 – Jan. 28, 2025
Scott Anthony King, a cherished father, brother, and friend, passed away peacefully on Jan. 28, 2025, at the age of 62, in Alpena, after a valiant battle with brain cancer. Born Feb. 26, 1962 in Detroit, Scott’s life was marked by his unwavering kindness, gentle spirit, and friendly demeanor.
Scott dedicated over 30 years of service to Chrysler, where his hardworking nature was evident. He was known for his commitment and resilience, often working 12-hour days for months without a break. His colleagues respected him for his dedication and the quiet strength he brought to his work.
An avid fisherman, Scott found solace and joy in the great outdoors. Scott’s love for flying his drone was more than a hobby; it was a way for him to capture the beauty of the world from above and share it with those he loved.
Scott’s gentle soul and kindness made him a beloved figure not only within his family but also in his community. He was the kind of person who would greet everyone with a warm smile and was always ready to lend a helping hand.
He leaves behind a legacy of love and cherished memories with his children, Priscilla King and Anthony King, who were the pride and joy of his life. Scott’s brothers, Mark King and Rick (Theresa) King, and his sisters, Valere (Joe) LaBell, LeeAnn (Kim) Bushey, and Roseann (Ron) Bellenir, will fondly remember their brother’s unwavering support and the special moments they shared. Scott was preceded by parents Richard and Rose King and a brother Joseph King.
The family will receive friends on Feb. 8, 2025 from 11 a.m. until the time of memorial service at 3 p.m. at McWilliams Funeral Home with Deacon Michael Roy officiating. Memorial donations can be made to Hospice of Michigan.
