Raymond Crawford Jr., beloved son of Raymond Crawford Sr. and Christine Lyons Crawford, peacefully passed away on October 21, 2023, at his home in Whitaker, North Carolina. He was a loving father, devoted son, and accomplished professional. His memory will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
Raymond embarked on his education at the prestigious Duke Ellington School of the Arts in Washington, DC, where he honed his artistic talents. This passion for the arts eventually led him to join the United States Air Force, where he continued to develop his skills while serving his country. After retiring from the Air Force, Raymond pursued a career in truck driving, dedicating many years to the road before ultimately retiring from this profession.
Raymond's legacy is carried on through his three cherished children. He leaves behind two sons, Dominique Jamal Crawford and Jalen Christopher Crawford, and a daughter, Latoykya Ann Crawford. These children were a source of immense pride and joy for Raymond, and their memories will forever be treasured.
As we mourn his passing, let us also remember the loving moments, the shared laughter, and the impact he had on those around him. May his soul find eternal peace.
