Betty was born January 11, 1923 in Laconia, New Hampshire, to Helen and Herbert Hayner. She attended McIntosh Business School until she joined the Navy in 1943 during World War II. She was stationed at Bainbridge, Maryland, where she met Joe "J.D." King, who was also stationed there in the Navy.
They were married and moved to Loris, which was JD's hometown. They had nine children and were successful farmers in the Daisy community. In the 1960's, they purchased the Loris Cold Storage that Betty successfully operated for more than 30 years.
Betty has seven living children, Judy Thrana, Joe King, Mark King, Mary Wilder, Susan Horton, David King, and Becky Riley. She has 20 grandchildren; and nine great-grandchildren.
She was predeceased by two of her children, Michael King and Patricia "Patty" King, both of Loris; and her sister, Mary Kendall of Columbia, Illinois; and her brother, Herbert "Bud" Hayner of Laconia, New Hampshire.
Betty's faith was her strength. She was a founding member of St. James Catholic Church in Conway, and was instrumental in the establishment of the Loris Catholic Mission, and the Catholic Church of the Resurrection in Loris, of which she was a member. Her faith was also her conviction, as she always strived to do right by everyone.
Funeral Mass for Mrs. King will be celebrated 11 a.m. Monday, November 22, 2010 at the Catholic Church of the Resurrection in Loris, with committal services following at Carter Cemetery. Father Rick LaBrecque will officiate services.
