Katherine Crawford was born in Mount Holly, North Carolina on June 2, 1931 to the late Birdie and Wesley Crawford. She was the last of their ten children to survive until she was called home to be with the Lord on Friday; February 15, 2019; 1:00 a.m. in the morning at The Robin Johnson House in Dallas, NC.
Katherine received her formal education in the Mount Holly, North Carolina School System.
At an early age, Katherine left Mount Holly, NC where she was a faithful member of the Macedonia Baptist Church Family to move to Boston, Mass; and never joined or belonged to any other church during her time outside of the state of North Carolina. During her years in Boston, Mass, she worked for Raytheon Electronics for over forty years. She also became a dedicated member of the Eastern Stars.
Katherine fell ill in Boston, Mass; and approximately five years ago due to her illness she returned to her roots back to Mount Holly, NC, and reinstated her membership with the Macedonia Baptist Church family.
Katherine dearly loved her family and friends, but most of all, she loved the Lord!!!
Left to mourn and cherish Katherine’s memories are her two children: daughter, Glenice “Dee” Crawford, her son, Ronald “Abdul-Haqq Muhammad” Crawford; three grandchildren: Aaron (Tracey) Crawford, Safonia Sample, and Oronde Branch; seven great-grandchildren: Maya Crawford, Akinyele Crawford, Chinyelu Crawford, Darrius Sample, Leslee Branch, Oronde Branch, Jr., and Christian Branch; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
