Barbara Gail King
On the evening of October 14th, 2017, Barbara Gail (Anderson) King, came to
the end of a seventeen-year battle with breast cancer. She passed from this
life with her husband of fifty-five years – Jerry King – by her side. Barbara
was a native of French Lick, IN. She was born there on March 30, 1944 and was a
graduate of Springs
Valley High
School, class of 1962. She and Jerry married
there on February 24, 1962. In the fifty-five years she spent as wife, mother
and nanna extraordinaire, she was blessed with four daughters, Tracina Kay
Ruzicka, Bethami Zsaneen King, Ami Carol McIntyre and Jera Maielle King, all of
whom survive her. Her life was also enriched with six grandchildren, Kelsie
Owens, Taylor King, Evan and Madison McIntyre, Ashby Snyder and Nicholaus Hall,
and one great-granddaughter, Jolie Whitham. Barbara was the third child of
Orville and Dovie Anderson, both from French Lick, IN and both of whom preceded
her in death. She is survived by one brother, Jerry Anderson and one sister,
Linda Plimpton, both of whom reside in French Lick, and by one half-sister
Sharon Denton of Wilsonville,
AL. She is also survived by
numerous nieces, nephews and cousins, many of whom reside in southern Indiana. Barbara loved
the beautiful things of nature, especially beautiful flowers, hummingbirds and
giraffes. The face of a child would melt her heart and children seemed to be
drawn to her intuitively. She loved dancing and – in younger years – motorcycle
riding with Jerry. But Barbara’s life was really defined by two things, faith
and family. She was one of Jehovah’s Witnesses and actively engaged in bible
study and shared her faith through door-to-door ministry from childhood. She
was a woman of great integrity and quiet strength and was nothing less than
inspiring for the dignity and character she displayed in her long and bitter
battle with a relentless foe. She will be missed by a multitude of family,
friends and admirers far more than any words can ever describe.
