Florence Crawford

Florence C. Crawford, 90, of Quakertown, passed away on Tuesday, January 21, 2025, at LifeQuest Nursing Center in Quakertown.

Born on June 6, 1934, in Philadelphia, she was the daughter of the late Antoni and Mary (Cieslinska) Wroblewski.

Following her formal education, Florence enjoyed a lengthy career as a secretary at Penn-Wall, retiring in 1980. She then joined the team at Wal-Mart where she worked until she was 80 years old.

Florence and her husband raised their family in Ivyland, PA, after which they moved to Tucumcari, New Mexico and later Ocala, Florida.

In her spare time, she found joy in watching her favorite football team—the Eagles—never missing a game. She also took pleasure in cooking, reading, dining out, dancing, and crocheting. Above all, though, she treasured spending time with her children, grandchildren, and dogs.

She also deeply loved her two dogs: Sweet Pea and Chicanita.

In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her husband: William H. Crawford, Jr., who passed away on July 15, 2016; and her brother: Matthew Wroblewski, who passed away in July 2024.

She will be lovingly remembered by her son: William H. Crawford, III and his wife Priscilla; daughter: Linda Jones; grandchildren: Ryan Crawford, Brandon Jones, Jerone Jones, Kathendra Spence, and Robert Jones; great-grandchildren: Brook, Tyler, Khloe, and Carter Spence nieces: Margie Bezerko and Tina Evans; and her beloved furry companions: Sweet Pea and Chicanita.

A visitation will be held at St. Isidore’s Catholic Church, 2545 West Pumping Station Road, Quakertown, on Friday, May 9, 2025, from 10:00am until the time of the Memorial Mass, in church, at 11:00am   

Arrangements are under the care of the C.R. Strunk Funeral Home, Inc., Quakertown.
