Anna Mae King, 73, passed away at home on Saturday (Jan. 31, 2015)
surrounded by family.
Mrs. King was born on July 15, 1941 in Arthur, Ill. to Samuel and Katie Ann (Miller) Petersheim. On Feb. 12, 1966, in Arthur, Ill., she married Alvin J. King, who survives.
Anna worked as a secretary with her husband in the family business, Liberty Seamless Gutter, for 15 years until her retirement in 2010. Previously, she was a cook for Mifflin County Christian Academy in Burnham, Pa. and also had her own catering service in Belleville, Pa.
In addition to her husband of almost 49 years, Anna is survived by three daughters, Althea Joy (Paul M.) Fultz and Rosalyn Kay (Terry A.) Long, both of Belleville, Pa. and Rhonda Elaine (David A.) Gibson of Chalfont, Pa.; two sons, Cedric Lynn (Bethany M.) King of Andover and Jason Wendell (Toni L.) King of Hornell; three brothers, Edgar (Maryanna) Petersheim of Humbolt, Ill., and Edward (Judy) Petersheim and Samuel (Janette) Petersheim, Jr. both of Arthur, Ill.; 11 grandchildren, Alicia R.

Anna was predeceased by a sister, Viola Gingerich.
Anna enjoyed quilting, decorating and sewing. She was an avid cook and in her more relaxed times, she liked to play card games and read. She and her husband attended the Hallsport Christian Church in Wellsville which blended nicely with her favorite pastime of visiting with friends and spending time with her family. Formerly, they attended Kish Valley Grace Brethren Church in Milroy, Pa.
