Anne K. King, of Falls Church, Virginia, passed away peacefully on September 12, 2025, at the age of 99. Born on December 18, 1925, in Ayden, North Carolina, to Wilbur and Sally (Carman) Kittrell, Anne grew up with a spirit of curiosity and kindness that she carried throughout her life.

She was predeceased by her parents, her sister Robin, and her beloved husband of more than fifty years, Thomas J. King, Jr. Anne retired from a distinguished career with the Federal Aviation Administration, where her steadfast work ethic and warm demeanor left a lasting impression on her colleagues.

A woman of boundless creativity and energy, Anne found joy in painting, bridge, sewing, crafts, and gardening. Her love of learning and sharing her talents made her an engaging neighbor, a fun-loving friend, and an inspiration to those around her. Anne’s caring nature and sense of humor endeared her to all who knew her.

Anne was a longstanding supporter of the Falls Church Lions Club and participated in numerous volunteer organizations, enriching the lives of countless others with her generosity and compassion.

Anne is survived by her niece, Judy Kubicek of California. She leaves behind cherished memories and a lasting influence on Kathy Lopresti, a neighbor whom Anne helped raise, and with many close friends and neighbors who will miss her dearly.

Anne’s legacy of kindness, creativity, and community spirit will continue to inspire all who had the privilege of knowing her.

A private burial ceremony will take place at Oakwood Cemetery.
