Veronica Crawford fought a long and hard battle with cancer for the past five years. Yet, she looked cancer right in the face without flinching. Anyone who knows Veronica, knows she is a warrior who puts her family first above all else. She fought her cancer in between weddings, graduations, and family celebrations. She did it all with such ease and grace. Those who had the privilege of knowing Veronica Crawford understand what a gift she was to everyone around her. She laughed often, loved fiercely, and stood up for those who could not stand up for themselves. She will be greatly missed by family and friends and anyone who had the opportunity to know her. Veronica was also known for her deep love for her Lord and Savior Jesus. Veronica was a faithful servant, showing the love of Jesus to anyone she encountered. She fought a long fight and now she can rest, completely healed, in her Father’s arms. Veronica often found peace and comfort in Psalm 121. “I lift up my eyes to the mountains— where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip— he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord watches over you— the Lord is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all harm— he will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.” Arrangements by Tim Stewart Funeral Home, 670 Tom Brewer Road, Loganville, GA 30052. 70-466-1544.
