Mark Crawley

Mark Alan Crawley, 52, of Pequot Lakes, went to be with the Lord on February 28, 2011, at St. Joseph's Medical Center, after a short battle with cancer. He was born May 19, 1958, to Maurice and Shirley (Kraushar) Crawley. He was a loving brother, special uncle, and great friend. Motorcycles were his biggest passion. He loved being a truck driver and all the new adventures life brought. He was a veteran of the U.S. Army, serving in Germany, and was employed by Chrysler as a service manager in the Twin Cities for over 20 years.

Mark is survived by sister, Lynn Crawley; brothers: Steve Kraushar, Glen Crawley, Dean Crawley; special nieces and nephews: Rob and Donnie Anderson, Stacy and Isaiah Kretzman; along with many other nieces, nephews, and several dear friends that were like family to him.

He was preceded in death by his parents, and sister, Jeanne Cluraghty.

Special thanks to Heartland Hospice staff and Whispering Pines Good Samaritan Center.

Family and friends may gather at Timberjack Smokehouse and Saloon, Pequot Lakes, at 1 PM on Sunday, March 6.
