Eugene never married--he was stricken with spinal meningitis which left him crippled. When Loujena King first knew him, he was a great help on the farm. Some of his chores were shelling peas, pealing fruit, drawing water, churning, ironing and
washing dishes. Earlier, he went to the field and picked cotton, crawling on his knees. When Mother (Susie) King got sick and left the Mt. Pleasant hospital (Titus County Memorial), she went to a nursing home in Mt. Pleasant before she died,
he came to Abilene and stayed 1 1/2 years in Hiriam (Jake) and Gena King's home--later he lived at Shady Oaks Lodge. He had surgery in the fall of 1968 and had a malignant tumor removed from his intestines. He made a quick recovery and now was
almost 74 years of age. He had good health and enjoyed the activities of the indoor sports club and all of the programs given at the lodge. "By Loujena Sheppard King". When "Uncle Lou" was living with Mother (Susie) King her grandson, Bruce
would bring his children to visit. Uncle Lou was in a wheelchair and would whittle sling shots. He made one each for D'Auan and Tommy.
