Craig King

Loving and adored father, Craig Damon King passed away at the age of 72 on November 30, 2021. His battle with serious medical issues in recent months showed his courage in facing challenges with a smile, and never limiting himself to enjoy times with friends and family. Up until the end he made sure people always had a smile on their face through a joke or his creative flair for story telling.

Craig King, son of Nancy Brownlie and Theodore King, and originally from Teaneck, NJ, permanently moved to Indianapolis in 1977. Prior to this, he graduated from Missouri Valley College on a wrestling scholarship, and subsequently from Indiana University with a Masters in Kinesiology. Throughout the years, with his inviting personality and joy for entertaining people, Craig navigated his life as a skilled magician, pharmaceutical/medical sales rep, and years of little league baseball coaching at Oaklandon Youth Organization.

Craig is survived by his two sons, Chris and Scott King. Craig will be honored in a Celebration of Life gathering on Saturday December 11, 2021.
