Vincent Daniel Crean
July 10, 1965 – June 12, 2025
Vincent "Vince" Daniel Crean, 59, of Lawrenceville, Georgia, passed away on June 12, 2025, surrounded by the love of his family.
Born on July 10, 1965, in Long Island, New York, Vince was the beloved son of the late Andrew and Maureen Crean. He spent his early years in Tampa, Florida, before settling in Dunwoody, where he graduated from Dunwoody High School in 1983.
Vince built a long and respected career as a Master Automotive Technician, retiring after more than 30 years in the field. He was known for his expertise, honesty, and strong work ethic-traits that earned the trust and admiration of coworkers, customers, and friends alike.
An adventurer at heart, Vince fulfilled a bucket-list dream by participating in the Baja 1000 rally in Mexico. After crashing just 10 miles in and breaking four ribs, he still managed to ride 30 more miles to the next checkpoint-proof of his grit, determination, and unshakable spirit.
But Vince's greatest joy and proudest accomplishment was his family. He was a devoted husband and father who showed up in every way that mattered-from baking birthday cakes and decorating the house for holidays to making homemade Halloween costumes and teaching his children how to ride dirt bikes. He never missed a lacrosse game-rec league through college-and celebrated every wedding anniversary with his wife and children, honoring the life they built together.
For 16 years he made his wife laugh every single day. Vince led with love, humor, and quiet strength. His legacy will live on in the countless lives he touched through his kindness, loyalty, and unwavering devotion to those he loved.
Vince is survived by his loving wife, Deborah Crean; his daughter, Emily Craig (Brannach); his son, Davis Moore; and his grandson, Cooper Craig.
He will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
