It is with heavy hearts that we announce
the peaceful passing of Odis Duncan

life, Neita (Allen) Crawford of 64 years, and his children Lillian
(Donald) Davis, Elizabeth (Scott Mullin) Crawford, Denise (David)
Gormley, Paul (Angela) Crawford, Steven (Dawn) Crawford, whom he loved
very much, as well as his grandchildren, Benoit and Annie

Odis was a lifelong fisherman and boat
builder, a job and passion he loved very much. He was a hard
worker all of his life and was always ready and willing to help
everyone in need; an active member of his community, you could always
count on him to be there. He was a man with a big heart,
very devoted and generous to his family and friends. He
greeted his sickness with a positive attitude and always a warm smile
for everyone who cared for him, known to be a quiet and loving person
and true gentleman to the very end.
Besides his parents Trueman and Annie
Crawford, sister Mary Walton (Powell), daughter in law, Gail Crawford
