With heavy hearts and cherished memories, we honor the life of Donita Nichelle "Nikki" King, who passed away April 13, 2025.

Born October 19, 1961, to Richard Arnold "Dicky" Dyson and Constance "Connie" Marie Dyson, Donita was the first of three children. She shared a deep, enduring connection with her younger brothers, Richard "Rich" Dyson and Shaun Dyson, both of whom preceded her in passing. Now, she joins her parents and brothers in eternal peace-reunited in love and light.

She graduated ahead of her peers from Westhampton Beach High School and went on to serve in both the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Army as a nurse.

Donita's heart belonged to her children- Damien Smith, Ebony Smith, Lekesha Smith, and Brittney Smith and her 15 grandchildren.

She is lovingly remembered by her husband, Jeffrey King, whom she married February 15, 2010.
