Cecil Crawford was so helpful and encouraging to me when I served at Asia-Pacific Nazarene Theological Seminary in the Philippines. He is responsible for helping promote leadership and women in ministry. He was greatly appreciated. May his commitment bring you wonderful memories.

SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. MAY YOU DRAW CLOSE TO GOD AND FIND COMFORT IN READING HIS WORD.

It was an honor to know such a wonderful man. He made life at Plantation Village a joy for so many, even myself as an employee. I am very sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you. The world has lost a twinkle that cannot be replaced, but thru his good works, will carry on.

I am sorry to hear of the loss of your Father, I know he will be missed, even though he is in a better place now.
