HE WAS A WONDERFUL PERSON, HE WAS A FAMILY FRIEND OF OURS AND HE IS GREATLY MISSED.

Dear Newland, William and families, I have had the priviledge of knowing Kay for 20 years through our relationship at Grady-White. He has always been a wonderful, larger than life bundle of energy with an easy smile, a warm hug and handshake, and an infectious laugh. I will always treasure a CD he gave me featuring Kay and Andy Griffith singing gospel hymns. It's truly beautiful! What a gift Kay was to many people in a myriad of ways. God bless all of you in this difficult time.

Dear Newland and Will,
Your dad will truly be missed. We met him and your mom when we first became Grady-White dealers. He has been such a great friend through the years. Boy, they could dance!

We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Our deepest sympathy and condolences during this difficult time.

We are so sorry to learn your sad news. We send our love and condolences to the whole Crocker family.

I was saddened to hear that Mr. Crocker passed away. Mr. Crocker was my history teacher a zillion years ago at NHHS. Mr. Crocker was a memorable teacher that made the class alot more interesting! My thoughts and prayers are with the Crocker family.

My deepest sympathy to the Crocker family.
Kay Crocker was without exception the finest teacher I ever had. I graduated from NHHS in 1968. His World History class made an impression on me that has lasted a lifetime. I will never forget him & will always be grateful for the privilege to have been his student. I regret that I never took a minute over the last 40 years to let him know the difference he made in my life. I'll just have to say "THANK YOU Mr. Crocker" when we meet in Heaven.

We were very sad to hear of Kay's passing. We wish to extend our heart felt sympathy to all of you.

I was so saddened to hear about Mr. Crocker's passing. I did not know him very long but it did not take long to see that he was a giver. He was highly respected in every way and took great pleasure in seeing the joy and success of others. I will always think of him admiringly.
