Jeffrey C. King

Jeffrey C. King, 61, of Dublin, Ohio, passed away on April 25, 2024. He was born on August 1, 1962, in Columbus, Ohio, to Floyd E. King and Helen C. King. Jeff is survived by his loving family: His wife Christina J. King, brother Pete (Camille) King, son Jason (Avery) King, son Jared (Maggie) King, son Cameron (Nicolette) Briggs, son Christian Briggs, and his four grandchildren Charles, Elle, William, and Brooks. Jeff was preceded in death by his first wife Susan E. King, his father, Floyd, his mother, Helen, and his brothers, Donn and Gary King. Growing up in Columbus, Ohio, Jeff attended Wehrle Catholic High School where he excelled as a student-athlete. Jeff went on to pursue a Degree in Accounting from The Ohio State University while also playing for the Buckeyes Varsity Baseball Team (1981-1984). Jeff was the recipient of multiple Big-Ten Conference Awards for his achievements on the field and in the classroom, including the highest honor of Academic All-American. Jeff left Ohio State with multiple school records and was Drafted by the New York Yankees after his senior year. Following his playing career Jeff achieved the CPA designation and went to work in Columbus for Peat Marwick (now KPMG) where he met his first wife Susan Ellwood. Jeff spent the majority of his career working for the Digital Storage, SubmitOrder.com, and NCT Ventures family of companies, all headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. After taking an early work “retirement” to follow his sons’ baseball careers across the country in his beloved “RV King” motorhome, Jeff helped with the founding and growth of the new family business, C&A Benefits Group, with his wife Christina. Jeff will be remembered for his leadership, mentorship, and most of all, his work ethic. Jeff was the ultimate competitor and left an impact on every business, coworker, and friend that he had in his life. He was a man that inspired, constantly sought improvement in all things, and made you want to be great. When Jeff gave you his time you listened, learned, and walked away a better person for having crossed paths in life. A memorial service to celebrate Jeff's life will be held on May 10th, 2024 from 5-8pm at The Club at Corazon, 7155 Corazon Drive, Dublin, OH 43016.
