I read so many beautiful posts from family and friends when they lose loved ones and wonder how they have the strength to write at such a time of sorrow.

Unfortunately it’s my turn. My beautiful and loving sister Lisa Crawford (Lisa Colagrossi) just had her last right s read to her. Later this evening they will remove her from life support to help her leave this world to be with God and our loved ones that have gone before her.

I’m blessed that we’ve had this final day and will be with her to the very end. As she is an organ donor, she will live on through others while her spirit raises to Christ our Lord. Helping others to the very end as she always did.

Please pray for our family and especially Todd Crawford and their two beautiful sons Davis and Evan.

This world has lost a great daughter, sister, mother, wife and friend too many.

We love you Lisa and you will always be in our thoughts and prayers. See you in heaven big sis. …
