Our condolences to the extended Crawford family. As I told Wayne when he notified me about his mothers condition, she was an inspiration and a good role model for us as kids for her perseverance in raising such a good family in the face of the obstacles of single parenthood. She will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers.
