To the Crawford/Horton family, I remember singing on the Gospel Chorus at Mt Hebron and was always a joy to be around, earth has no sorrow that Heaven can not heal.
My mom Valerie was one of the managers at Evergreens landing apartments . Later on we became neighbor. Blossoms into more we just neighbors. We was family. There wasn't anything we would do for one until I moved. Everyone I came to Gastonia I would come come see her. I'm truly going miss her.
Sending our condolences and prayers to the family!
