Terrell Don King

September 14, 1952 – May 8, 2022

Terrell Don King, age 69, passed away Sunday, May 8, 2022. A small service for family and friends will be announced on the Scott’s Funeral Home website at a later date.

Terry was born Sept. 14, 1952. He spent his entire childhood on the family farm in the small community of Plainview, just outside Gatesville. He graduated from Gatesville High School in 1971 where he played football and was active in 4-H showing shorthorn steers.

Terry had a love for farming that never left him. He was a huge Texas A&M fan and read TexAgs daily; if you ever needed to know what was happening with Aggie football, he could tell you! In his recent years he could always be found at the breakfast table at Pruitt's.

Terry was preceded in death by his parents, Clovis King and Frances Koch King. He is survived by his daughters, Kandi Luensmann, Kari McKown and husband, Mark; grandchildren, Braden Luensmann, Hailey Luensmann, Maci McKown, Luke McKown, Zack McKown; and sister, Rosemary King.

Memorials may be made to Coryell County Youth Fair, PO Box 133, Gatesville, Texas, 76528.
