Funeral services will be held at 10:00 am on Saturday, March 25, 2006 at Christ Community United Methodist Church, Marion with Reverend Tom Parrott and Pastor Becky High, officiating.  Interment will follow at Anderson Cemetery, Swisher.  Visitation will be from 3 to 8 pm on Friday at Brosh Chapel, Cedar Rapids and one hour prior to services Saturday at the church.

Judi was born on October 30, 1948 in Cedar Rapids the daughter of Eldon and Marion (Detert) Hosek.  She graduated from Prairie High School and the University of Iowa with a degree in Home Economics.  On April 10, 1968 she married George William "Bill" King Jr. in Cedar Rapids.  She was a charter member of Christ Community United Methodist Church and served as past secretary of the church board.  She was an active volunteer particularly with the ARC of East Central Iowa.  She and Bill devoted several thousand hours to the organization.

Judi is survived by two sons Bryan of Marion and Christopher of Mount Vernon and his fiancée Michelle Brecke of Cedar Rapids; father and step-mother Eldon and Betty Hosek of Marion; brother Verne (Joyce) Hosek of Fairfax; mother-in-law Mary King of Cedar Rapids; sister-in-laws Nancy (Alan) Kennedy and Joanne (Scott) Carbaugh all of Cedar Rapids; brother-in-laws David (Dawn) King of Eden Prairie, Minnesota, Richard (Aimee) King of Atkins, and Robert (Elizabeth) King of Galesburg, Illinois;  several nieces and nephews,  two great nieces and a great-nephew.

She was preceded in death by her husband George William "Bill" King Jr. on November 10, 2005, mother Marion Hosek, and father-in-law George William King Sr.

Each of us who knew and loved Judi know that she was a loving, caring person who shared her many gifts with us in many ways.  Bill, Bryan and Chris were the recipients of her gift of undying love and devotion.  Many of us were the recipients of her love and caring in other ways.  From the perfectly timed American Greetings cards, to the trips to Playtime Poppy, to the hours spent in prayer and discussions of faith, Judi's kindness and thoughtfulness was shared by all.  A famous poet once said, "It is in the details where God lives."  Judi's gift of attention to detail was evident in everything she did. In a way, then, Judi has always been with God all along.  We will all miss her greatly, but now, we know where we can find her…in the details.

Memorials may be directed to Christ Community United Methodist Church or the ARC of East Central Iowa.
