Richard Crum, Jr.

March 12, 1952 — October 21, 2020

Richard Calvin Crum Jr., 68 years of age, passed away on October 21, 2020.

Richard was a loving husband, father and Papa. For him, God came first and he taught his family how to be a good Christian by doing and caring for others. His family and friends meant everything to him. He would stop everything at the drop of a hat to help someone in need, no matter what the reason. He was everyone’s “Go-to guy”. He knew enough about everything and a lot about everything else. He was a strong presence and will forever be missed.

Richard is survived by his wife Debra J. Crum; his father Richard Crum, Sr.; his children Marci Perino (Sheldon), Marla Crum (Nicke Nickelson) and Margo Pergola (JoJo); his grandchildren Gilliana, Giovani, Joseph, Vincent, Gienaveve and Theresa; his sister Debra R. Crum; his brother in law Paul Grier, Jr.; sister in law Sheri Murphy; and numerous nieces, nephews and their families. He was preceded in death by his mother Viola Crum and his sister Kathleen Grier.
