Richard Crabtree Obituary

Richard Scott Crabtree Richard Scott Crabtree, 60 years old, of Mount Vernon, road a Drekkar warship to the halls of Valhalla this Saturday, May 30, 2015, at the age of 60. Richard is survived by everyone lucky enough to have known him. The uniqueness of his life is only exceeded by the statute of limitations. A celebration of Richard's life will be held Sunday, June 28, 2015 in the Legion Hall at the Legion memorial park, at 1:00 p.m. Richard took big risks, and accepted both sides of the coin. His passing was no different. He died with no regrets, beyond missing the Mad Men Series finale. Few have lived with as much passion as Richard did, and in lieu of flowers, Richard would hope you would do the same.

Dickie,
I miss you from the bottom of my heart and will love you forever! Thanks for being the best big brother a baby sister could ever have! That includes the good, the bad and the ugly! We wouldn't have been who we are today without our pasts! You taught me so much in life even if I don't remember it all not quite as smart as you were. Enjoy your journey until we meet again someday! Love you always

Dickie was my sweet nephew that I have loved from the moment he was born my feelings for him have remained the same. He was the first grandson on the Harrison side after many girls. He grew up to be a sweet compassionate man. The lose is very sad for our family. I hope he knew how much he was loved.

My dear dear brother I will miss you so much. It is hard to put down in words how much you meant to me. I will never forget the way you would say "Hello Laura" everytime you called. I hear it everyday and I answer back to you "Hello Dickie"! As Sara said it is your way of telling us you are ok. Be at peace my brother. Love you to the moon and back always and forever!!
