Suson Charlene Crawford, 65, went to Heaven Thursday, October 29, 2020 at home with her beloved family in Granbury. Her family was singing over her as she was wrapped in the arms of Jesus hearing Him say to her, “Well done good and faithful servant.”

She was born November 12, 1954 in Vernon, Texas to Wayne and Imogene Talley Fennell. Suson was a graduate of Conquerors Bible College in Portland, Oregon where she met her “stud muffin” Steven Crawford. While in college, she traveled on mission trips to South Korea and New York. Steven and Suson were business owners over 40 years and greatly loved their employees as family. Suson touched countless lives locally and globally through her gift of generousity!

Suson was an active member of Generations Church, The Spice Girls, Newcomers, Mad Hatters, her neighborhood Bunco group, an active member in several Bible Study Groups, and loved serving as Chaplain for the Granbury chapter of the Salvation Army in which she was deployed to serve for several disaster relief projects. She never met a stranger; she made everyone feel included. She loved shopping, traveling and having lunch with “The Girls”.

Suson was preceded in death by her brother Clay, her father, mother, and brother Carl.

She is survived by her husband of (45) years, Steven Crawford; her son, Jason Crawford and daughter, Dr. Shannan Crawford; brothers, Michael Fennell and Sam Fennell and sister, Dalene Barnhill; nephews and nieces, Wayne, David, Tonya, Mindy, Carlena, Anthony, Alan, and Christina as well as a number of great-nieces, great-nephews, and other extended family and incredible friends who brightened her life with their love and willingness to join her in adventures! Suson lived life to the fullest!

I love my amazing mom more than words can express! As a family we are looking back at pictures, crying & laughing together remembering precious times with my remarkable mom! I have been imprinted by an incredible woman who loves God, is wise, discerning, playful, hilarious, generous, Godly, driven, and a brilliant business woman! Mom loved upgrades! So when Jesus took her to Heaven on 10/29/20 He gave her the ultimate upgrade in a spectacular mansion! The Lord gave her a dream prior to her passing, in which she saw herself young, pretty and healthy wearing a gown with crystals all over it. The Lord showed me a picture of a full book with blank pages at the end. I now know she completed her assignments and there was nothing left for her to do here; she completed her race! So now Suson Crawford is dancing with Jesus hearing Him say "Well done good and faithful servant." We will cary Suson Crawford in our hearts with gratitude for having known her! She is now a part of the Great Cloud of Witnesses cheering us on! We will see you again soon mom!
