Chriss Crawford, 76

| June 5, 2018 4:00 AM

Our beloved Chriss “was suddenly called home” early Thursday morning, May 31, 2018, “to be with his family in heaven.” He had just celebrated his 76th birthday.

After owning Chriss Crawford Insurance Agency from 1979 to 1996, he retired with the love of his life, Myrna, to travel the U.S. in their RV. He spent winters in Indio, California, with friends and summers at Flathead Lake with family.

Chriss, a passionate lover of classic cars and a talented Jeep crawler, never met a stranger and was the life of the party wherever he went. If there was not a party, he would start one. He thrived on projects and helping friend and son, Rod.

Sur-vivors include his soul mate of 59 years, Myrna, brother Randy, sister Mary Mosley, son Rod and daughter in-law Kristy. Grandchildren include Cari, Baylee, Cody, Lexis and Travis, and great-grandchildren, Ridge, Sage and Ash.

He was preceded in death by his parents, John and Effie Crawford, daughter Lori and son Jay.

No service will be held as per his wishes.

In his own words his whole family bids him, “Don’t forget you’re special!”

Please send well wishes to Myrna Crawford and family, 7847 Double Tree Lane, Missoula, MT 59804.
