Support Edward Cruse's Memorial Celebration

Hello, my name is Elyssa Lyons.

My father, Edward Cruse passed away at 4:36pm on February 24th, 2025. I couldn’t afford to do a viewing, but I would love to do a celebration of life.

I love seeing all of the fond stories that people keep telling me of my dad, and how much he was loved and how much he loved. It warms my heart that he had so many friends that loved and cared for him throughout these years.

Even if I don’t reach the goal, it helps put funds towards the hall we are planning to rent and the catering.

My dad loved his grandkids and loved making people laugh. He definitely made an impact on every life he walked into, even people he only knew for a few months.

Update: thank you everyone for helping us reach the goal. I will close the GFM on March 15th. Anything additional will go towards catering. 

The caterer we were going to use is closed on Sunday, so we’re trying to find somewhere else to cater.
