Gregory Thomas Crawford, 53, passed away on Friday, September 11, 2026.
Gregory was born on August 13, 1973, to Samuel and Kathleen (Hanlon) Crawford.
He was preceded in death by his father, Samuel Crawford, and is survived by his loving daughter Vivian Crawford, his mother Kathleen Crawford, his sisters Pam Politte (Russ), Jennifer Politte, and his brother Jeffrey Crawford (Margaret).
Greg was a loving uncle to Heather (Kyle), Matthew (Sommer), Kristen (Nick), Joey, Megan, Michael, Tommy, Natalie and Emily.
Greg was a loving friend to RJ Mueller (Vivian’s brother) and Alexia Keil (Vivian’s mother).
He will be greatly missed by friends and family, especially for his humor and the laughter he brought to so many.
Services: There will be a Celebration of Greg’s life at Kutis Funeral Home in South County, 5255 Lemay Ferry Road, Mehlville, MO, on Tuesday, September 29th from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to Missouri House Rabbit Rescue, where Vivian volunteers weekly, or to Nerinx Hall, her school, happy place, and incredible support system.
Vivian would also like to use this opportunity to raise awareness that many common flowers and plants, especially lilies, are highly toxic to cats and can be extremely dangerous even in very small amounts. Since our cats also have a habit of eating flowers, a donation in Greg’s memory would be especially meaningful to our family.
