Obituary of Marlene C. Crowe

Payette lost long standing citizen Marlene C. Crowe on October 12, 2021 after a long and valiant battle with cancer. She passed in the embrace and care of her family with excellent guidance from Ancora Hospice. She is preceded in death by her parents, husband, and five siblings. She is survived by her invaluable caregiver Richard Crowe, and four loving children: Stacy Crow, Stephen Crow (Stephen Recla) Jonathan Crow (Briana) Michael Crow (Rolinda). She also leaves behind a sister and brother, three grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

It is impossible to describe how much Marlene will be missed by numerous friends and family. “Family First” was not a motto for her, but a truth and lifestyle. She gave generously of herself to The Eagles and The Lions for many years. The refuge, help, and comfort she provided for many cannot be measured.
