Jimmy Allan Crawley went to be with the Lord on September 23, 2025, at the age of eighty-five. Jim was born to John and Sydney Crawley on June 23, 1940, in Littlefield, Texas. Cremation arrangements are under the personal care of Hillcrest Funeral Home in Littlefield, Texas.

He moved to Lubbock, Texas and worked as a locksmith at Deckelmans Locksmith and it was in Lubbock that he met the love of his life, Wilma Jo. They married on December 26, 1972, and lived happily for forty-seven years. Together they opened a locksmith shop, Mr. key, in Midland, Texas and upon retiring, decided to spend time traveling. They journeyed throughout the United States and Canada and enjoyed sharing everything they had seen and done with others. Jim enjoyed reading, fishing, hunting, and although for a short time, enjoyed flying. He was a quiet man that shared his smile and love with others.

Jim is survived by his brother Bob Crawley of Seaside, California; four children, Sherri and her husband Guyle Roberson of Amherst, Texas, Allan and his wife Ruth Ann Crawley of Chickasha, Oklahoma, Jimmy and wife Jaye Deckelman of Lubbock, Texas, Kelly Jo and husband Brian Jones of Southlake, Texas; six grandchildren, Randi Brooke Sheffy and Shane Roberson, Meagan Hunton, Allissa Vitro, Tanner Belton, and Parker Slavins; six great grandchildren, Carsyn, Zoey, Logan, Ava, Tessa, and Truiitt; and many loved, extended family members, sister in law, Gwyn Pierson, and brother in law, Bobby Dean Moore. Jim was preceded in death by his wife, Wilma Crawley, his parents, John and Sydney Crawley, and his sister, Johnita Moore.

The family would like to thank the staff at Visiting Angels and Beyond Faith for their home health care and Runningwater Draw Care Center, Olton, Texas, who became an integral part of our family and loved him as their own.
