Paul E. King Jr., 64 of Evans, passed away Friday, July 8, 2016 at his home surrounded by his family. He was born April 2, 1952 at Charleston, a son of the late Paul E. Betty Randolph King. Paul was a very strong person, some would say Superman, with a great will to live and enjoy each day to its fullest. He faced every obstacle with a positive attitude and surety that someone else must be worse off than he. Showing what a giving, caring, loving and compassionate person he was. He fought the fight with all he had until the very end. He was happiest surrounded by family and friends. He was an awesome grandparent (grampie, papapaul). He loved playing video games, cards, fishing or just hanging as long as they were near. He strived everyday to be the best dad and grandpa he could possibly be to those near and far.
