Hello friends. We are all saddened by the recent loss of our dear friend and brother, Charles Russell Crawford. To honor Russell’s memory, we have established this GoFundMe to assist with clearing and cleaning his apartment, making after-life arrangements and organizing a Celebration of Life event in his honor on March 29, 2026. Your support will help cover these costs, ensuring that we can gather together to remember and celebrate the incredible person Russell was.

Any unspent funds will be distributed to several non-profit and charity organizations that aligned with Russell’s values and loving spirit. We are also exploring the possibility of commissioning a local artist to create a bench or other memorial piece in a public space near Russell’s home, so his legacy of kindness and generosity can continue to inspire others.

We invite everyone who knew and loved Russell to contribute what they can, share memories, and help us celebrate his life. Your support, whether through a donation or by sharing this fundraiser, means so much to all of us who were touched by Russell’s presence.

Thank you for helping us honor his memory and keep Russell's spirit alive. Save the date for March 29, 4:00 - 8:00pm and more details will follow soon.
