Kayla M. Crocker

1988 - 2017

Kayla Maylee Crocker, 28, of Pensacola, FL, passed away on February 7, 2017, in Sacred Heart Hospital. She was born in Bethlehem, PA, to Garry and Loretta Crocker on October 31, 1988.

She moved with her family to western Pennsylvania in 1994 where she attended Farrell Elementary and Middle Schools. In 2001, Kayla moved to Pensacola, FL, where she attended J.M. Tate High School in Cantonment, FL, graduating in 2006.

Kayla's perfect day included spending time with her children, mother, sisters, and nieces; playing with them at the park or the beach. She loved music, the television series Supernatural, and Chinese pop culture and food.

She was an advocate of organ and tissue donation and wanted to save lives. Kayla would want us to ask others to donate life.

Kayla was devoted and committed to her children and family.

Visitation will be from 4:00 p.m. until funeral service begins at 6:30 p.m., Monday, February 13, 2017 at Beulah Baptist Church, 5805 Beulah Church Road with funeral service immediately after.

Trahan Family Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.

The family wishes to extend their gratitude to Escambia County Sheriff's Office, other law enforcement agencies, Sacred Heart Hospital Medical Staff, the entire community of Escambia County, Florida, and all of the generous donors who so selflessly offered prayers, messages of concern, and their hard-earned resources to the Children's Fund. Their support has carried us through this tragic time and lifts us up amid our grief. There is abundant kindness in this world, for which we are so thankful.
