Patricia A. King, 80, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend passed away at home in Myrtle Beach, S.C., following a courageous battle against cancer. Trish was born in Ocean Township, N.J. and lived in Manasquan and Lake Como prior to retiring to Myrtle Beach in 2012. Trish taught pre-school for the Brick Township Board of Education for over 25 years. Helping children was her passion. She is survived by her husband Bill of 61+ years, sons Bill Jr. and wife Denise of Neptune City, N.J. and Derek Jon at home, grandson William D. King of Philadelphia, PA., granddaughter Kimberly Raheb and husband Rob of John’s Island, S.C., with great-granddaughter Eloise Reine Raheb. She is also survived by her loving brother Carl Embrey and wife Robin of Long Branch, N.J.

Trish lived life to the fullest as she loved the beach, traveling, skiing and rooting for her favorite team, the Philadelphia Eagles. She also flirted in the sporting world competing in several marathons including New York City and the Marine Corps 26.2 in Washington D.C., a number of 100-mile bike tours, and a few sprint triathlons; although her greatest accomplishment was seeing her students achieve their goals and prosper in life.

In accordance with her wishes, a private cremation is being held, and in lieu of flowers the family requests that donations be made in Trish’s memory to a charity of your choice. A celebration of life will be planned in the future at the family’s convenience.
