Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryKELVIN MURRAY CRAWFORD We are in shock and disbelief to announce the sudden passing, at his home in Gimli, on March 19, 2016 of Kelvin Crawford, our loving husband, father, grampa, great-grampa, brother, uncle and friend, after a short illness. Those left behind in grief are his wife of 50 years, Lorraine and their children, Laurie (Debbie), Colleen (Lance) and Christy (Dale); his grandchildren Carly (Justin) and Josh, Cam and Daryn and great-grandchild Abby; as well as his special sister Beth (Neil), brothers and sisters and numerous nieces and nephews. Dad had many lifelong friends he considered family, Pat, Clem and Maryann, Jake and Marylee, Ron and Carolyn and Wade and Laura. He also treasured the new friendships made at the New Horizons 55 Plus Centre. As a young family, we enjoyed summers at the lake, ski trips and getting together with family and friends. After a long career in retail, dad retired but never let any grass grow under his feet, travelling any chance he got with his wife Lorraine and being active golfing, curling and taking his beloved Rockze on many walks and adventures. A celebration of his life will be held in the summertime. The family would like to thank the paramedics and staff at the Gimli Hospital who tried so hard to keep our dad with us. Your presence we miss Your memories we treasure Loving you always Forgetting you never Gilbart Funeral Home, Gimli in care of arrangements. www.gilbartfuneralhome.com
