Kevin Davis Crume was born on February 14, 1962 in Roseburg, Oregon. He left this world unexpectedly and was received by his Heavenly Father on the morning of May 29, 2024 at 62 years of age.
Kevin moved to Ruston with his family in 1973 and graduated from Ruston High School in 1980 (Go Cats!). Kevin was a loyalist. After graduating from Louisiana Tech University with a Bachelor's in Business and minor in Aviation (Go Dawgs!), he began working for his family businesses. Kevin's devotion to family business carried through the duration of his life – D.C & Associates, CTS Trucking, Secur-It Self Storage, Ruston Country Club, and RE/MAX Results Realty. The example he set was embraced by his kids and the legacy of loyalty to family and community lives on.
He was an avid outdoorsman. He loved fishing, hunting, landscaping, sports (Geaux Tigers!), music, a good meal, driving around, and he could take a nap anywhere at any time. Kevin didn't need to have a reason – for a visit, to help someone in need, or to show up for his family and his friends. Being available and intentional was in his nature.
Quick-witted. Life-long learner. Matter of Fact. Hilarious. Dog Dad. A Listener. Caring. Sarcastic. Gentle. Patient. There is so much more to be said, but what an impact he has made.
Kevin is preceded in death by his son, Logan Joel Crume; his father, Donald Crume; his brother, Byron Crume and sister-in-law, Mary Crume.
Surviving to cherish his memory are, the love of his life Jenny Crume; oldest son, Brandon Crume (Blake Cooper); youngest daughter, Jordan Crume Mabry (Joanne); oldest daughter, Morgan Crume Fuller (Graham) with granddaughter Bobbi Anne Fuller and grandson Braxon Fuller. He is also survived by his mother, Charlotte Crume and sister Cheryl Hough (Vernon), mother-in-love, Cecelia (Granny) Hedrick, and father-in-law, Bob Hedrick (Lely) and "a boat load" of other loved ones.
Serving as pallbearers will be: Tim Clark, Bobby Crume, Joel Hedrick, Marc Richard, Tom Schneider, Dr. Patrick Stuckey with honorary pallbearers Jeff Hedrick and Gary Perry.
Visitation will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 1, 2024, with the funeral to follow at 3:00 p.m. at First Baptist Church of Ruston with Rev. Chris Craig officiating. Burial will follow in Forest Lawn Cemetery in Ruston under the direction of Owens Memorial Chapel Funeral Home of Ruston. In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations in Kevin's name to First Baptist Church of Ruston or The Ruston Cultural District.

Kevin was like a brother to me and our family. I was blessed that I was able to recently spend time with Kevin. Kevin was/is helpful, kind, positive, selfless, interesting, intelligent, motivated, family and people-oriented. No matter how busy Kevin was, he always had time for you. He was a great `teacher´, role model, friend, and big brother! Kevin, your absence leaves a hole in the world. We will see you on the other side brother!
