Mark Crawford Obituary

Mark L. Crawford passed peacefully and unexpectedly at home on April 11, 2021. Mark was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan but his true love for over 30 years was Arizona. He loved camping, the night sky, good conversation and close friends. Mark also had a profound love of animals!

His beloved wife, stepdaughter and extended family survive him. Services will be held outdoors on April 29 at 3:00 PM. Please call 928-853-5137 for location and RSVP. In honor of Mark's love of music, please wear your favorite music/concert T-shirt or wear his favorite color, blue (if so inspired).

In lieu of flowers, please donate to High Country Humane Center.

We love you 'til the very last star falls from the sky, Mark!

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
