Barry Crabtree Obituary
It is with much sadness that we announce the passing of Barry S. Crabtree on March 6th 2025. Barry was born in Brooklyn NY to father Walter Crabtree and mother Miriam Crabtree. He was 71 years of age.
He is survived by his loving daughter J.B. Howard, his grandson, and 2 granddaughters as well as his partner of 13 years (S.Thurber.) Barry was preceded by his loving son Joseph VanWart.
Barry wore many hats in his lifetime from a musician to chef to his long-term career path as an insurance adjuster. Barry had a profound love for music, tennis, fast sports cars and a good laugh. He will be greatly missed.
