Publish in a newspaper
On October 16, 1965, Vic was united in marriage to Thelma Joyce (Blankenship) Crocker who preceded him in rest on December 19, 2005.
Surviving Vic are five children, David Crocker and wife Melissa of Arnold, MO, Dennis Crocker of Ironton, MO, Jimmy Crocker and wife Melanie of Ironton, MO, April Wharton and husband Aaron of Ironton, MO, and Travis Crocker and wife Leslie of Caledonia, MO; 23 grandchildren, a brother Bill Crocker of Leadwood, MO, three sisters, Wanda Horn of Fredericktown, MO, Joyce Guffey and husband Richard of Texas, Jenny Spicer of Tennessee; and many more loving family members and friends.
From 1969 to 1992, Vic worked for the ASARCO Company-Glover Plant to support his growing family; he worked very hard during his time with the company. He was a life-time member of the Elks Lodge, member of the NWTF, Coon Hunters Club, an avid hunter, bowler and golfer, enjoyed playing softball and racing motorcycles, and was a CB radio enthusiast. And when all the work was done and there was no playing to be had, Vic attended the New Beginnings Assembly of God.
Vic Crocker was loyal to his family and friends, was always there to help family when it was needed. He could always get people to laugh and smile with his larger than life sense of humor, and never turned away from his family. Vic Crocker was a loving and devoted husband, father, grandfather, uncle, and friend. He will be missed by all who were blessed to know and love him.
