Publish in a newspaper

Donald R. Crawford, age 75, of Corcoran MN, passed away peacefully on August 25, 2025. He was born on April 9, 1950, and lived a life full of adventure, love, and devotion to his family. He is survived by his loving wife, Linda; his two children, Jeremy (Leia) and Angie (Jake); and his three beloved grandchildren, Reese, Braylon, and Bryce. He was preceded in death by his faithful dog, Lucy, who held a special place in his heart. Don had many passions throughout his life. He loved scuba diving in beautiful places around the world, traveling with Linda and his family, biking, and cruising in his cherished IROC-Z. More than anything, he treasured time spent with his wife, children, and grandchildren, who brought him immense joy and pride. He will be remembered for his adventurous spirit, his devotion to those he loved, and the countless memories he created with his family and friends. His legacy of laughter, love, and togetherness will live on through all who knew him. A visitation will be held at 10:00 a.m. followed by a celebration of Don's life at 11:00 a.m. on Monday, September 8, 2025, at Washburn-McReavy Glen Haven Chapel. A graveside service will be held for Don at Glen Haven Memorial Gardens immediately following his celebration of life. Please join us for a luncheon in the chapel's reception room following burial.
