Not sure what to say?

The Drake families have meant so much to the Robert T and Robert W McMillan families.
I was so saddened to learn of the death of Crawford. My husband Robert and Mary Jo were high school classmates.
My prayer is for comfort and healing for the families we all loved.
Robert and Crawford may now be running on those streets of gold.❤❤

W. Crawford Drake is my brother and the best a sister could ever have. He was a committed Christian, and outstanding husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, and uncle who was adopted by his niece and nephew. He was a football coach who was actually a mentor and minister to his players. He was super intelligent, always kind, wise, very funny, and loved life!! I will miss him more than words can express.
