CRYSTAL KING

-

meet many wonderful people.

I am married to Jonathon King, employee of BCBS and 15 years of service in the United States Army. He is currently servicing in the Army National Guard. I have one son and 3 step children 2 boys and 1 girl. It’s always exciting at our house. LOL

My family are not members but have been enjoying several services from Catoosa Baptist Tabernacle before Covid-19 hit our community and online now.

What makes me stand out for the best pick for Catoosa County coroner?

I am a Registered Nurse, we are advocates for our patients. I plan to continue to be the advocate for the patient and families. I am honest, kind and compassion­ate. I will always present myself in a friendly manner to families. I will go above and beyond to make sure the families have the resources they need to help them through their situation/difficult time.

As a surgical tech and nurse its very important to have integrity to do the right thing, surgical conscience because we are working on someone’s mother, dad, sister, brother, etc. doing the right things is TOP PRIORITY.

As I don’t have direct experience being a Coroner, I believe if someone really wants the job, they will put 100% plus to do the right thing and do the best job possible.

I have wanted to be the Coroner since I was in high school, I will do an amazing job for our community.

I am not sure any community was prepared for what we are currently facing with Covid-19. I believe if I get elected as Coroner, being a Registered nurse will be a positive asset. I will be able to work with the county health department to make sure our community is prepared for any future outbreaks and help establish a disaster plan by working with the local fire department­s, 911 center, local police officers and the City and County officials to make sure our plans are solid.

I feel our community has done an excellent job during this Pandemic and I am proud to be a part of it.

I think it is also important to educate the community/ young kids about everyday life choices, drug and alcohol prevention and suicide prevention, human traffickin­g, abuse and sexual assault. I hope if I am elected I can join to help educate the community about these important topics.

I enjoy riding Polaris RZRS in the woods. What a way to spend a weekend with friends. I enjoy swimming. I love the beach. Sitting on a beach chair and reading a book is the best way to spend the day. I enjoy spending a nice evening outside with the kids playing basketball or watching them play. I enjoy entertaini­ng family and friends. Family game nights are always a blast.
