Coree Crawford
It’s with great sadness that we announce the passing of Coree Crawford. With her children by her side, mom left to be with dad on October 30, 2015.
Coree was predeceased by her husband, Bob Crawford (June 2014), her sister Anne and brothers Jack and Pete. She leaves behind her daughter Ann-Marie (Gord), sons Rob and Paul (Andree), cherished grandchildren Andy, Sheena (Zack), Jordan, Joel and Ethan, as well as siblings; Lia (Frank), Polly (Stu), Willie (Brian), Trudy (Reg), Marian (Ray), John (Sue) and Don and their large extended families.
Coree was born on December 15, 1940 in the Hague, Holland. She was the second oldest of Marie and John Straathof’s 11 children. In 1952, the family packed up and migrated to Canada, and settled in Powell River with some Dutch relatives. In 1960, Coree met her match and married Bob in 1961. The following year came the first of their three children and she quickly became the anchor to Bob and her three busy children’s lives.
While she enjoyed baking, cooking, gardening, playing Scrabble and camping, time spent with her grandchildren was her favourite. Over the past 20 years she also enjoyed worldly travels and camping out with family and friends.
We would like to express our deepest appreciation to our health care professionals for their care and compassion over the last 10 years.
A celebration of Coree’s life will be held Saturday, November 14, 2015, at 1 pm at Beach Gardens Marina and Resort. In lieu of flowers, a contribution to Powell River General Hospital Foundation would be greatly appreciated.
