Our deepest sympathy Sue to you and your family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

Couldn't Be Finer Posted by Doug Ball (friend and former neighbour) On Thursday, August 30, 2012 I wqs deeply saddened to hear of Keith's passing. He was such a fine, kind, friendly neighbour and friend. He was the husband of Evelyn, my wonderful Cookie Lady. I couldn't have asked for finer friends and neighbours. Keith is healed & happy in God's hands. I will miss him very much. May God bless you, Evelyn. Doug
To my Canadian "grandma", Evelyn, and family, My deepest condolences on the loss of such a great man. The Crawfords had welcomed us with open arms into the Walmer Gardens neighborhood as well, and I will be forever grateful for their kindness and joy towards my parents and sisters. Rest in Peace Mr. Crawford, you will be missed by us all. Mounir (from across the street)
