We are all shocked here at Westwinds. I will always remember seeing Crystal walking with her 2 sticks, swimming with all her weights and small chit chat. Our hearts are all so heavy for the loss you must be feeling Randy and family and praying for your strength. She will live on in the hearts of all those who loved her and be missed greatly by all of you and her friends at Westwinds. Hugs to you all from your Florida USA family.

My condolences Randy, family and friends.
Crystal and I were girlfriends for over 50 years. We shared our teens together. I have fond memories of spending summers at the cottage and singing songs while Crystal played the guitar. We cooked bread in the pie irons over a camp fire.
