Obituary from baxterfh.com:
Blair Evan Crapo, 74, passed away on November 5, 2022, at his home surrounded by his family in Parker, Idaho from complications due to cancer. Blair was born March 20, 1948, to Maurice and Vida Crapo. He was welcomed by two older brothers, George and Richard. He was followed by his younger brothers, Bruce and David. His sister, Geraldine, died at birth.
Blair grew up learning the value of hard work from his father and brothers. They taught him by example how to work together as a family. The best advice he got from his mom and dad growing up was "If you work hard and always show up for work, you will get ahead."
Blair graduated from South Fremont High School in 1966. He loved FFA and was active in 4-H. He showed steers raised by the Crapo herd and won Grand Champion in Blackfoot. Some of his fondest summer memories were spent with his dad and uncles showing their registered short horn bulls.
As Blair stood in line waiting to register for ISU in Pocatello he meet his beautiful bride. Lottie Ann Almond caught his eye and they got married on August 11, 1972. The bonds he had with his brothers made it an easy decision to come home where he was able to follow in his father's footsteps. This is where his love for farming began. It was the time in their lives where they started to understand the importance of hard work and family values.
Blair loved farming but above all he loved his family. Being with his wife, and five children, and later down the road his fourteen grandchildren, is what brought him the ultimate joy.
Blair will always be remembered by so many. His love for cars, farming and people is evident in the many lives that he has touched. His legacy will live on through the memories and friendships that he has created throughout his life.
Blair is survived by his wife, Ann, and children; Jared (Becky) Crapo, Brynne (Jarrod) Hansen, Jennifer (Brandon) Frogley, Brittany (Andrew) Gerard, Kelsey (Joseph) O'Dell; 14 grandchildren. He is also survived by his brother, David (Patsy) Crapo, and sister-in-laws, Linda Crapo, Kathleen Crapo, and Patti Crapo.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Maurice and Vida Crapo, his in-laws, Lottie and Burton Almond, his sister, Geraldine, and his brothers, George, Richard and Bruce.
Funeral services will be held at 11:00am on Saturday, November 12, at the St. Anthony Stake Center, 247 East 4th North, with Bishop Brian Abegglen officiating. The family will receive friends Friday evening from 5:00pm-7:00pm, and Saturday from 10:00am-10:45am, both times at the Stake Center. Interment will be at the Parker Cemetery under the direction of Baxter Funeral Home.
