May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
Remembering all the days at volleyball matches and our trip to Indianapolis to see the girls play at Circle City Sports.
Sorry that I won't be able to see you and wish you my condolences - I am in quarantine for 14 days due to the COVID-19 exposure. Bless the entire Crabbe family.
