Jim Crawford

December 31, 1969 — October 2, 2017

Jim Crawford, 59, of Phoenix, Arizona passed away suddenly on September 18, 2017. Jim was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on May 26, 1958 to the late James D. Crawford of Windsor, Connecticut and Kathryn K. Crawford of Phoenix, Arizona. Jim was a graduate of Windsor High School in Windsor, Connecticut and later attended Central Connecticut State University. Soon after, he moved to Denver, Colorado then to Los Angeles, California and finally to Phoenix where he pursued his passion for fishing, camping, and four-wheeling in his Jeep. His happiest moments were spent enjoying the beauty of favorite spots like Crown King with good friends who shared his love of the outdoors. Jim was articulate, well-read, and a close friend once noted that his vocabulary and way of expressing himself were "remarkable". Besides his mother, Kathryn K. Crawford, Jim is also survived by a sister Karen E. (Gene) Byrer and nephew Shawn R. Burner of Peoria, AZ, as well as extended family of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Jim was preceded in death by maternal grandparents Crist M and Marie G King and paternal grandparents George and Pearl Crawford. A private Memorial Service will be held at a later date.
