Kathleen King Torres, 90, passed away Friday evening at the home of her grandson, Lee Flowers in Walterboro.

"Kathleen," as she was fondly called, was well known for her association of over 29 years at Lewis Drug Store in downtown Mount Olive where she assisted Hooty and Bersha Lewis as store clerk and pharmacist assistant.  There is absolutely no count of how many orange-ades and lemon-ades she made,  as well as scoops of ice cream she dipped!  She was a long time member of Mount Olive Lion's Club, and enjoyed keeping her yard perfectly manicured for just as long as her health permitted.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Henry and Minnie Smith King; four brothers, Charlie, William, Percy, and Henry Lee King; four sisters, Thelma K. Parrish, Margaret K. Price, Virginia K. Bailey, and Jacqueline King.  Kathleen was preceded in death by her two husbands; Alfred Bruce, Chuck Price.

Surviving her are a daughter, Joan B. Nunn of Faison; three grandchildren, Lee Flowers and wife, Lindsay, of Walterboro, Lisa Befumo and husband, John, of Charleston, and Christina Davis and husband, Sean,  of Faison, and their families; eight great-grandchildren; two sisters, Ruth K. Bennett of Mount Olive, and Barbara K. "Dink" Paige of Warsaw; and several nieces, nephews, and their families.

Graveside funeral services will be Thursday afternoon, June 20, 2024 at 1:00 at Wayne Memorial Park, 2925 US-117, Dudley, NC 28333.  The Rev. Lamar Jackson will officiate, and the family will receive friends following the service at the cemetery.
