John Albert Crawford, 81, of Marshall, Arkansas, passed away on Thursday, October 29, 2020, at his home. Burial will be at Grandview Cemetery.
John was born on January 3, 1939, in Morganton, Arkansas, to the late John Wesley Crawford and Nora Atheline Payne Crawford.
He was a member of the Grandview Church of Christ. On May 12, 1960, he married Mary Jean Spradlin. They raised two daughters, Amy and Mary Ann. John loved to work up a good trade, work a good team of mules, and listen to a good hunting dog on the trail of wild game.
He was a carpenter, a drywall hanger, a farmer, a hunter, and a breeder of dogs. His home was always open and the coffee pot going for anyone who wanted to drop by for a visit. He loved spending time with friends and family and spinning a tall tale from time to time.
John enjoyed good food. But even more, he enjoyed cooking and watching others enjoy his meals. His food, his stories, his creativity, and his love will be greatly missed.
He was preceded in death by his wife, Mary Jean; and siblings: Hulen, Roy, Melvin, Lorene, Evaline, and Imogene.
Survivors include his daughters, Amy Lynne Henry and Mary Ann Powers; granddaughters: Amanda, Sarah, Emily, and Molly; great-grandchildren: Logan, Jaycee, Owen, Sophia, Lily, Kynzee, Maggie, Jackson, and Tucker; sisters, Betty Rorie and Lois Rose; other relatives and many friends. A4
