Kevin King, Jr.

June 23, 1994 — June 9, 2025

Kevin King, Jr., beloved son, partner, father, and friend, passed away on June 9, 2025, at UCLA Medical Center due to complications from Lupus and pneumocystis pneumonia. He was just 30 years old.

Born on June 23, 1994, Kevin brought light and love into the lives of all who knew him. A gentle soul with a deep sense of empathy, he was known for his kind heart, thoughtful nature, and unwavering loyalty to his friends and family. Kevin had a special bond with those closest to him, and his quiet strength and warmth left a lasting impression on everyone he met.

Kevin had a lifelong love for animals and dedicated himself to their care through his business, King's Mobile Pet Spa, which he successfully operated for over eight years prior to his illness. His devotion to the pets he served and the clients who trusted him reflected his deep compassion and integrity. He found great fulfillment in bringing comfort and care to animals and joy to their families.

He is survived by his loving life partner, Chelsey, and their cherished daughter, Nala, who recently celebrated her 9-month birthday. He is also deeply mourned by his devoted father, Kevin King Sr., and his brothers Wil, Jorge, Kris, and James, along with many extended family members and friends whose lives he touched.

Kevin had many passions in life, including music, family travel, and meaningful conversations. He especially loved train trips he took with his father to San Antonio and Seattle, and treasured their night at the Hollywood Bowl seeing Carole King and James Taylor—a moment that sparked his lifelong appreciation for music. Above all, Kevin valued time spent with loved ones, and his gentle presence will be profoundly missed.

A visitation will be held at Forest Lawn – Hollywood Hills on Tuesday, June 24, 2025, from 12:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. The funeral service will take place at the same location on Wednesday, June 25, 2025, at 12:30 p.m.

The service will be officiated by co-celebrants Father Rolly Astudillo (Our Lady of Lourdes, Tujunga) and Ashley Hengst. It will include a reading from the Book of Ecclesiastes, Psalm 23, and other expressions of faith, love, and remembrance.
