John Crate Obituary
He was the stepson of Johnny Miller, of Mineral. He is survived by his caregiver and friend, Jean Bonham and her family, and her great-grandson Kedrick, who loved John dearly.
A funeral service with Navy Honors was held on Oct. 17, 2018 at Virginia Veterans Cemetery in Amelia, Virginia. Interment was in the same location.
John was kind and caring, and only wanted love and respect from others. He will be missed.
Affinity Funeral Services handled the arrangements.
