Ethel Annetta King was born March 6, 1893, at
Bedford, Iowa, the sixth child of Joseph and Annetta
Jones Hoover. At the
age of 7 she moved with her family to
Bartley,
Neb., where she was reared and
educated. She
married Frank King June 15, 1910, at Bartley where they made
their home. While in
Bartley they farmed and they also owned and operated a
restaurant and gas station.
In November 1934 they moved to Nampa and later purchased a
farm in Kuna. Mr.
King died May 10, 1961, and she remained in Kuna.
In 1985 she returned
to Nampa
where she had since resided.
Ethel was very devoted to her family.
She was always
concerned and caring for others.
We will miss her
inspiration and her sense of humor.
One of her greatest
pleasures was family potluck dinners and picnics.
Ethel is survived by a son, Dean King, and his wife, Marge,
Kuna; three daughters, Hilma Kennel and her husband, Jess,
and Lois Turpen, Edna Gammill and her husband, Jerry, all of Nampa; 19 grandchildren; 42
great-grandchildren, 10 great-great-grandchildren; and
numerous nieces and nephews.
Besides her husband she was preceded in death by two sons, a
daughter, two grandchildren, three brothers and four
sisters.
