Kermit T. Crawford was born to Alvernzo and the late Calburdia Crawford on November 12, 1974, in Chicago, IL. We all called him by his nickname, “Kirby.”
Kermit attended Bridge Elemetary School and graduated from Weber Catholic High School. He was very athletic and an outstanding football player there.
Kermit enjoyed driving old school cars and faithfully watching WWE Wrestling. Kermit was most recently employed with YRC. Many were impacted by Kirby both near and far. Kermit left a lasting impression everywhere he went.
Kermit loved and was devoted to his family and friends. He enjoyed spending holidays and family time with them.
Kermit was welcomed to the heavenly gates by his mother, Calburnia Crawford.
Kermit leaves to cherish his memories: his loving father, Alvernzo Crawford; two children Joshua and Kiara, two sisters, Floy Collymore and Cathy Crawford of Chicago, IL; two brothers, Fonteria (Tangie) Crawford of Chicago, IL, and Larry (Bobbie) Crawford of Memphis, TN; four grandchildren, Joshua, Kaycee, Jason and Promise; and a host of other relatives, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends
