We all had very special memories with mawmaw and some will always stick out. For example, her signature meals like red beans, white beans, or two toast bread with butter and sugar. The way she called "olver" instead of "Oliver" and the way she never had to force a smile upon her face. Even the way she always sat quietly, secretly listening to everything that was being said. Whether you knew her and called her by mawmaw, mahme or Laura she will forever be in our hearts and missed dearly!
She leaves to cherish her memories, two sons; Oliver King, Jr. and Alvin D. King both of Thibodaux, LA; two daughters; Dianne King and Bobbie Jean King both of Thibodaux, LA; one brother; Lawrence Hudson; three sisters; Mary Triggs, Cecil Broussard and Rebecca Hudson, twenty-three grandchildren, sixty great grandchildren, five great- great grandchildren, three sisters-in-law; Liza (Georgie) Broomfield, Elnora Ingram, and Barbara King all of Houma, LA, a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.
