A devoted husband and father, he fiercely loved his daughter and had a special bond with his wife, who has been his best friend since high school. They shared three wonderful years of marriage, filled with love, laughter, and countless beautiful memories.
He found joy in riding his golf cart to enjoy the mountains and wildlife and delighted in the sounds of wind chimes dancing in the breeze. His love for horses was matched only by the profound adoration he held for his daughter and grandbabies, who brought immense joy to his heart.
Known for his unwavering honesty and warmth, Chuck was a cherished presence in the lives of those who knew him.
Chuck is survived by his loving wife, Lauree Crawford; daughter Shannon (Matthew) Allen; siblings Gene (Wanda) Crawford, Jamey Crawford, and Diana (Chad) Forgety; sister-in-law Nancy Briggs; aunts Betty (Gary) Johnson and Jo Ann Faircloth; grandchildren Rylee and Parker; and numerous nieces and nephews.
He is preceded in death by his parents, Leonard Eugene Crawford and Joyce Elaine Bishop Briggs, and brother Danny Briggs.
Chuck leaves behind a legacy of love, honesty, and simple pleasures. He will be profoundly missed by all who had the privilege to know him.
