My Uncle “Bud” shared millions of memories with my sister Nikelle and I. Sarah will always be (in my heart) my Sister-cuz. I will honor and treasure his memory forever. One standing out in my mind, is short and sweet. Our Kings were in California. The Patriarch was in East TN, and of course Cam III was in Savannah with his lovely wife Barbara. We would have reunions in upper East TN. Uncle Bud, his brother (my Dad), would go waterskiing behind their Dad’s (Cam A King II) while the three girls watched with pride. They played music together and will forever be in peace. I will never forget those times.
