Obituary


Ralph C. Crawford III, age 70, died unexpectantly in his home on March 23, 2022.
Ralph was born in Jacksonville at the Navy hospital on July 12, 1951 to Ralph Cole Crawford Jr.
and Loree Padgett Crawford, which are both deceased. He was also preceded in death by his
sister, Rita Willis.

Ralph is survived by his children; Raleigh Cole Crawford and Royce Christopher Crawford; his
daughter-in-law, Alicia Marie Crawford; his grandchildren, Aixa Lorraine Crawford and Alexis
Lenore Crawford.

Upon graduating from High School, he went to work for Maxwell House as a coffee dumper
then later promoted to a MOTC Operator where he was responsible for loading and unloading
the shipment trucks. Maxwell House is where Ralph worked for the next 40 years until
retirement.

When Ralph wasn’t working, he was a faithful church member of Evangel Temple for over 40
years. He was a member of the choir, where he sang bass, taught Royal Rangers, and served on
over two dozen mission trips all over the world. His dream was to one day visit the beautiful
state of Alaska.

Ralph later became an active member of Wayside Assembly of God where he attended until his
last days.
