She was born in Dewey, OK on May 30, 1937, one of eight children born to Delton F. and Francis (David) King.

She was a devoted and faithful mother. In her early years she was a homemaker raising five children. For many years, Ida worked as a laundry attendant at Saddoris Laundry, Ramada Inn and Silver Lake Nursing Home before retiring.

Sewing and quilting were her favorite past-time hobbies. Both family and friends benefited greatly from that love. Her quilting handiwork lives on in many homes today.
