With deepest sorrow, we announce that Wayne King, age 54, our most beloved son, husband, brother, family member and friend passed away suddenly on Saturday March 26, 2022 peacefully with his family around him at the General Hospital.
Wayne was born in Montreal, Quebec to the parents of Late Gordon King and Patrica King. He will be missed every day by his loving mother, Patricia King, wife Patricia Rubio, sister Charlene King, brother Kenneth King, niece Kyhanna Giffin, nephew, Michael Purdon, many aunts, uncles, cousins and many many friends.
We know Wayne is with his father, Gordon King and his paternal and maternal grandparents. He is without pain and is now resting on God’s arm.
Those who know Wayne, even just a little, lost a shining star in their lives. The simplest pleasures in life brought joy to Wayne. He loved hanging out with his dog, Bernie. That dog was always by his side. In recent years, he passed his time making personalized candles and wood burning art for his family and friends. He was a lover of food, loved to create his own creations in the kitchen. He had spent his summers playing softball. He always kept his years of playing in North Gower close to his heart. His other passions were kayaking and riding his motorbike.
He will be missed by his family and many friends.
Family, friends and others who lives touched Wayne are invited to Beechwood's Sacred Space, 280 Beechwood Avenue Ottawa, ON, (613-741-9530) for Wayne's Funeral Service on Saturday, April 9 at 10 a.m., with a reception to follow.

Our sincerest condolences to Wayne’s family and friends. He stood out as a great guy; a genuine and gentle soul. It was a pleasure to get to know him on the ball field and at back yard BBQ’s. We will miss his award winning chilli at our chilli cook offs. Most of all we will miss him.
