Funeral Services and Memorial

We are sending home are dearly beloved Teshia Marie Crawford, 36, from Los Angeles, California.
Teshia's lifespan was a continuous battle with health issues from broncidous, sickle cell anemia, fibroid tumors, and more; she always fought well. That's why we regret to inform you of her passing.
One of Teshia's biggest dreams was to become a mother, which was one of the biggest battles she faced. Numerous tries and heartbreaking miscarriages took such a heavy toll on Teshia's heart, but she never gave up trying. Last year Teshia and Orlando received the great news that she was again pregnant. Due to the pregnancy history, Teshia decided to keep this a secret until she knew for sure. From the beginning, the pregnancy seems to have uncertain complications, leading to mandatory bed rest and even hospitalization at the beginning of the second trimester (4mons). It seemed that the pregnancy turned for the worst, resulting in early labor. Teshia, needed an emergency c-section at seven months pregnant due to life treating circumstances. Once again, she was fighting against the odds of life. Baby Orlando was born on July 31, 2021; at just 4lbs5oz, he was incubated and began his life's battle just like his mommy. Surely she besowed the strength in him that he continued to grow and was able to go home a few months later.
Fighters, they both are for sure! You couldn't tell their scars because their smile lit up the darkest room. You could see the glow in Teshia through pictures and conversations she shared. Happy moments with hubby, Orlando Atinne, and Baby Orlando were flooding timelines from Facebook to Instagram and even your personal messages, lol. Happiness was the new look; life finally gave the best for what it got. We were all blind to the internal illness that would soon take her life.
Because of the history of illness, Teshia was unaware that anything was majorly wrong. She was used to going up and down health seemed the norm, but it was not.
The history of complications, the wrong kind of medicine and ignoring the minor signs resulted in Teshia's passing.

Teshia Marie Crawford leaves behind her young child Orlando jr. (11mons) and husband Orlando.
Plenty of Grieving hearts will miss this precious soul, and we ask for help preparing for her homegoing. Please stay posted as the funeral arrangements will be held in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, where she lives, and there will be a view to say your last goodbyes. Following with a memorial service in Dallas, TX that is still TBA.
Thank you all for your love and support during these troubling times.
