Charles Gilliam, Leadership Prince William: “It is with sadness that I must relay the news of the passing of Patrick King. Early Wednesday morning, Patrick passed away at home in the company of the love of his life, Rebecca.”
“Patrick’s contributions to Leadership Prince William are profound, yet his charitable works reach far beyond our circle. Many non-profit boards had the benefit of his passion and wisdom and will enjoy the results of his creativity in problem-solving and innovative solutions for years to come. His generosity extended to every person he encountered.”
“In just a month, Patrick was to take the reins as chair of our organization. Over the last year, he has been diligent in preparing to lead us into our next chapter. We are saddened to miss the opportunity to see the direction he would have taken us but mostly, we are heartbroken to lose him as a friend. It would be impossible for any individual to capture the essence of a man who lived three lifetimes in one. I encourage you to scour social media to understand the impact he has had on so many lives.”
“Celebration of Life Event: Rebecca invites you to join together to celebrate the life of our great friend, Patrick. Friday, June 9, 2023, 4:00 – 8:00 pm, The Salisbury Center, 8890 Mathis Ave, Manassas, VA 20110″
King was the founder of Manassas-based Imagine Design, a brand strategy and digital marketing agency for tourism, economic development, attractions, and destinations.

Inspired by local physicians who were among the nation’s first to adopt the concierge medicine model, Northern Virginia is now a hub for its surging popularity. These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:
After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
