King, King…, Kinger

Gary W. King

The following notable persons recently added to Wikipedia’s Deaths in 2025 site stands out:

• J. D. King (May 1951 – November 13, 2025)artist, musician (death announced this day)
• Tiong Hiew King (18 March 1934 – 11 November 2025) timber, founder Rimbunan Hijau.
• Abhinay Kinger (20 June 1981 – 10 November 2025)  44, actor (Solla Solla Inikkum…)

We have a “King in Name (x3)” pattern cluster in the works.  Given the recent “Low Bass Theme” pattern cluster, I considered this a good place to begin.  On googling “Bass player surnamed King”, the search engine brought up 3, with only one who stood out: 

Gary W King (September 4, 1947 – July 23, 2003) jazz bassist, songwriter, composer, singer

His date of death is also the same as my mom’s, and so an addition to “Targeting Family Deaths” pattern cluster. And just to be sure that we recognize him as the one intended by the inner twin world, note this next recent addition to Wikipedia’s Deaths in 2025 site: 

• Edgar Lin  (23 July 1938 – 13 November 2025) 87, biologist, minister of environment

I consider this a prompt to visit the July 23 wikipedia page, where on applying the formula as per usual we arrive at 3, where one is a king!!:
