Mr. Crymes, a member of First Baptist Church, Collinston, LA, passed away March 22, 2025. He graduated from Bastrop High School in 1988 and served two years in the US Army in Germany. He was a great and loving father and son, as well as a loyal friend. He had personality to spare and was quite a character to be around. He never met a stranger or missed an opportunity to talk to someone about God. He was funny and enjoyed making others laugh. He was very much loved and will be greatly missed.
He is preceded in death by his grandparents, John H. And Martha Crymes and Travis and Sally Riggin.
He is survived by his mother, Frances Riggin Hammons, and husband Wayne; father, John Alan Crymes, Sr., and wife Belinda; daughters, Brandi Crymes and Cherity Crymes; son, Chantz Crymes, and wife Molly; stepbrothers, Rick Hammons, David Hammons and Jay Howell; stepsister, Joni Porter; grandchildren, Kameryn Brixey, Kylie Brixey and Jackson "Bear" Meredith.
