Elizabeth King

Sunrise: July 17, 1946

As Thessalonians 4: 13-14 reminds us, “Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.” So, we are confident that God will bring her with Jesus in the great resurrection.

In so doing, it is with the deepest of heart and much sorry, that the King, Snetter, McGee, Ledow, Williams, Johnson and Moiseeff announce the home-going of our mother, sister, grandmother, and great grandmother our own Elizabeth King formally called by the alias “Te-Nan.” She was 74 years of age at her passing. This sad and unfortunate event and God calling her from labor to reward, occurred at her home in Buchanan, Grand Bassa County, Liberia, after an extended period of illness.

Elizabeth King (Te-Nan) was born in Kingsville, Grand Bassa County on July 17, 1946 through the blessing of her parents Hon. Commissioner Henry T. King and mother BehWhere King both who predeceased her. In her earlier years, she attended Kingsville Elementary School, and later matriculated to Buchanan, Grand Bassa County where she was recruited and trained first at the Buchanan Government Hospital and later at Lamco where she worked as a nurse practitioner until her retirement.

Te-Nan leaves to mourn six children Darlington McGee, Marry King Lat (Glenice - deceased) Bill Ledlow, Williams Glay, Rachel S. Johnson, Elizabeth Snetter-Moiseeff, 13 grandchildren, and nine (9) great grandchildren. In addition, she leaves to mourn her brother Daniel King (deceased), Elsie King, Dr. A. Joel King, Thomas King, Christian King, Pamela King, Fred King, Mary King-Wiles(Jones), Adeline King-Momo, Chupee King, Fatu King-Dolleh (Ansu) many cousins including Mr. Victor King (Rose – her immediate first cousin), and a host of other relatives and friends.

In this regard, the family would like to thank everyone for their endless prayers, love, and support during this difficult time of bereavement.

Thus, we are confident that for those we love can never be more than a thought away; for as long as there's a memory, they live on in our hearts. Yet, we believe that tears can heal, memories can comfort, and love lives on forever. In so doing, loss can feel immeasurable, but so can the love that's left behind. We’ll miss you Te-Nan. Sleep well my dear…
