In Remembrance Of

Nancy Crawford

Nancy Lee (Jones) Crawford, 73, passed away July 21, 2022. 

She was born August 16, 1948, in Kansas City, Missouri, to Raymond G. and Nanie L. Jones. She was married to Will Crawford on February 5, 1968.

Nancy enjoyed being a homemaker while her children were in school and worked varied jobs in the years that followed. She enjoyed traveling with her family, particularly as navigator in a motorhome (unless she had to navigate over a tall bridge).

She was known to combine their vacations with her love of genealogy, looking at courthouse records in places they visited. Nancy was an early adopter of the personal computer, and she combined that with her genealogy, as well, long before ancestry.com.

She was a talented seamstress, making everything from costumes for Halloween and dance recitals to the wedding attire for her son and daughter-in-law.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Will, and children Tom Crawford and Diane Burns. 

She is survived by her children, Chaundra Crawford, Peter Crawford and his wife Nancy, Gay Crawford and Roger Burns; grandchildren, Max Crawford, Barbara Crable, Kelly Fetterman, Steven Brands, Robert Burns, Tracy Getting and Thomas Burns; and fourteen great-grandchildren.

A Celebration of Life and interment will be held at a later date.

    I recently found out of the passing of Nancy. I am truly sorry for your loss. I’ve only had the opportunity to meet her online over emails when she used to help me with my genealogy. She was a cousin on my father’s side. She was always very helpful to me and shared so many things about people and stories.
    Condolences to her family.

    Nancy was a good neighbor and friend. She made dinner of the most beautiful crochet pictures and was always willing to help others. Condolences to her family and many friends.

    I worked with Nancy in the late eighties and early nineties. Her work ethic was impeccable and she loved being the one to organize the lunch room parties. She had a blessed soul and I have a blessed soul for having known her. Chaundra was always my sweet friend. Please let me know when you have her “Celebration of Life”. I’m not on Facebook (816/728-9190)
