Ann "Robbi" Crawford, born on December 23, 1949, peacefully entered the embrace of her Savior, Jesus Christ, on November 2, 2024. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Eddie "Big Ed" Crawford, with whom she shared 43 years of marriage. Ann is survived by her sons, John (Trinidad), Malcolm (Jessica), and James, as well as her treasured grandchildren, Malcolm Jr., Eddie, Jeffrey, Nehemiah, and Jeremiah, who were the light of her life.
Ann dedicated 38 years to the Manatee County Transportation Department, where she served as a bus driver and later as Operations Manager. Her commitment and service left a lasting impact on the community. Ann was known for her unwavering faith, her role as an incredible mother, a devoted wife, a supportive friend, and a loving mother-in-law. Yet, her most cherished title was "Gigi," a testament to the deep love she held for her grandchildren.
Her life was a testament to her faith and devotion, and she leaves behind a legacy of love and kindness. Ann's journey was marked by her steadfast belief in the Lord, and she now rests in eternal peace, embraced by His love.
A celebration of Ann's life will be held at Forward Community Church of God, 209 7th Street West, Palmetto, FL 34221, on Saturday, December 14, 2024, at 4:00pm
