Ms Crawford and Irene: So many memories came alive as I read of LA’s death. It is wonderful that we can look back on those days of growing up on Olivette Road but the greatest is knowing that LA is resting and at peace and someday all of us will see her in perfect form. Dell the community always spoke of how well you cared for LA. God Bless you during this time. Love Linda Johnson Scorsone
Mrs. Crawford. You and LA have always been very special to me since I have known you for at least 40 or more years. You have been a true soldier of the cross. and LA has always just been a bright shining star.
Love Garry & Gaynelle Rogers
Dear Irene & Family, Please accept my condolences and prayers during this difficult time. I have been in Florida and did not know until I got back Sunday night. I haven’t seen you or your Mother in awhile but think of you often. May the Lord Bless you and your family.
Dale, Irene, and Loran, I am so sorry to hear of LA’s passing. I don’t take the paper; therefore, didn’t know. You guys have a special place in my heart as always and please know that you are in my heart. I love you all! Joyce Elkins Dover
