It is with immense sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved father, John Crearer, born September 22, 1952. Daddy was a man of extraordinary generosity, always giving to others without a second thought.

In November 2017, a ischemic stroke left him with a severe speech impediment and cognitive impairment. Even though he fought back through years of therapy, his heart problems persisted, leading to rapid and aggressive congestive heart failure. His children, Adeja, John, and Jolea, stepped in to help him navigate this difficult new life.

His final two weeks were spent in the hospital, intubated and unable to communicate, before his organs began to fail and the Lord took him home. For nearly a decade, we had to supplement his income, and we are now faced with the unexpected burden of hospital and funeral costs.

We are humbly asking for any support you can provide to help us give our father a proper farewell. Your contribution would be a beautiful tribute to the generous man who gave so much to all of us. Thank you for your kindness during this heartbreaking time.
