Kristi Priest King
John 16: 22, “So you have sorrow now, but I will see you again; then you will rejoice, and no one can rob you of that joy.
Kristi Priest King passed away Tuesday May 4, 2021 at Huntsville Hospital For Women & Children surrounded by loved ones after her battle with breast cancer.
Kristi was preceded in death by her father Harold Priest and mother in law Mary King. Kristi is survived by her husband and best friend Mike King, daughter Hannah Anderton (Chase Anderton), son Luke King (girlfriend Hannah Wright), mother Sandra Priest, brother Kraig Priest (Tina Priest) and their three children Kaleb, Tarpley and Tassidi. She is also survived by her dogs Hank (Big Chicken) and Marmaduke.
Kristi is retired from the Madison County District Attorney’s Office after 25 years. Kristi eventually went back to work in the same office on a part- time basis. She attended church at First Baptist Church in Meridianville.
Kristi was a blessing to her family and everyone she met. She and Mike raised two children with discipline, humility, and love. Kristi loved to watch sunsets, play with her dogs, and be surrounded by her family and friends. She would garden with Luke, watch her hummingbirds with Hannah, and sit on the porch with Mike.
Her Breast Cancer Sucks story is not over. Although Kristi has passed, her memory and testimony lives on. She continues inspiring and encouraging people in their faith in Christ. Kristi has touched many lives, and she is deeply beloved. To those who know Kristi and her story, she will be carried on in our hearts.
Kristi embodied every fruit of the spirit. She was always considering others above herself, and she loved God passionately. Because of her faith, it’s never goodbye just a see you later. Kristi fiercely loved her family, and she will be very dearly missed.
Thank you Prayer Warrior Tribe.
