Bernette King, age 83, of Coalfield, passed away peacefully at her home on Monday, September 22, 2025, surrounded by her loving family. She was born September 26, 1941, in Coalfield, Tennessee.
Bernette was a devoted mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend. A lifelong member of Stephens Baptist Church, she held firmly to her faith in Jesus Christ. Throughout her earthly life, she faced many health challenges with determination, grace, and a smile. She never knew how to give up, but she always knew how to show up for others.
