Her faith and her family were her priorities. She was always willing to share her love of God and her family with all.

She was a doting wife to her husband, Jack Crawford, and a beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and great-great-grandmother. She was a member of Lufkin First United Pentecostal Church.

Billie and Jack’s favorite times were family gatherings, especially the holidays. One of her favorite traditions was being in charge of spinning the Bingo wheel during family games at Christmas. The two boys are in agreement that she killed several peach trees to aid her in their raising.
