My sincere sympathy to all of Fr. Joe's family. Fr. Joe was a very kind and exceptional priest. He always had a smile & a way of making everyone feel special. I enjoyed helping out at many functions at I.C. in Everett with Fr. Joe.

Fr. Joe Crehan was a great priest. I'm sorry I can't be there for the funeral but I'm out of the country at the moment. He was a good friend. I have many happy memories of living with Fr. Crehan at the IC in Everett. He had a great sense of humor and really loved the people he served. He was a priest's priest. He will be missed. My deepest sympathy to his family and all who knew him. I celebrated Mass for him yesterday at RAF Alconbury in England, and will offer Mass for him on Sunday in Poland.

Father Crehan was the finest example of how a priest should conduct his life. He was a favorite of our family and will be sorely missed by so many who benefited from his kindness, humor and spirit.
Our sincere condolences to his entire family.

Fr. Joe was always smiling and made people feel comfortable. I was a parishioner at Immaculate Conception and my mother, sisters and I enjoyed talking with him at the Bingo there, as well. My whole family was sorry to hear that he died. I had no idea he had worked in Japan all those years. God bless him. I hope he is getting his reward. Sincerely,

Joe Joe was a holy, kind and loving man. Ice cream, the lottery and reciting the rosary were some of his favorite things.
As a priest, he spent many hours bringing God's love, joy and forgiveness to the ill and infirmed of the Immaculate Conception Parish.
We will be forever greatful for his love and support to my parents during my mother's sickness and death.
There will be a welcoming committee at the gates of Heaven for this wonderful, wonderful man and priest with a cup of tea, a dish of vanilla ice cream and a cigar.
You are in our hearts and minds forever.
Your loving friends,
Frank Favata, Roger, Marilou, Sean, Beth, Zachary and Molly Cummings

Fr. Crehan was my mother's (Marion Osgood) favorite priest of all time and she lived to be 89. My mother often spoke of him and his sense of humor. I am very sorry to hear of his passing but I'm sure my mother will be happy to see him.
