NORBERT KING

It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Norbert O'Neil Edwin King at St. Boniface Hospital on November 20, 2021.
He was born in St. Vincent and immigrated to Canada in 1971 where he worked at Health Sciences Centre and Winnipeg Transit as a Bus Driver and Instructor for 30 years.
Left to cherish his memory are his wife Althea Woods King, sons, Rondell O'Neil Edwin King, Kevin O'Neil Edwin King (deceased), sisters, Marvelle Dann, Marcelle Matthews, brothers, Cameron (deceased), Rawlson, Emerson (deceased) Earl (deceased), Leslie and Dave (Annie), grandchildren, Tiger, Isaiah and Karm, his nieces, nephews and many close friends and relatives.
His soul was kind and loving which made him memorable to many on their first encounter.
On behalf of the King's family we would like to thank all the support, prayers, messages, phone calls, and flowers we received. Special thanks to the Health Team at St. Boniface Hospital and home care staff for the many years of care and services.
The funeral service will be held on Saturday, December 4, 2021 at 11:00 a.m. and viewing at 10:00 a.m. prior to the service at Truth and Life Worship Centre, 51 Richfield Ave. Interment will follow at Glen Lawn Cemetery.
Due to Covid 19 restrictions, pre- registration is required to attend. For those who are unable to attend, the funeral service would be live streamed and a link is provided https://www.youtube.com/user/TLWC51/videos?view as=subscriber
In lieu of flowers, we ask donations to be made to the Parkinson Foundation.

  • Neil was one of the Instructors who showed me how to train drivers. He showed me how to care about people but have a high standard for their performance. Neil realized that everyone he trained was seen as a reflection of himself and the organization. Always caring and always professional. We miss you! - Posted by: Darryl A (Work friend ) on: Dec 04, 2021
