Sandra (Sandy) Lee Crowe was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She lived a fulfilling life of 84 years and passed away peacefully on February 20, 2024, in Houston, TX.
Sandy was born on October 7, 1939, to Ethel and Warren Elder in Long Beach, California. As the daughter of a Navy Ship's Cook, she moved around before settling in Newport, RI as a young girl, spending her childhood close to her grandparents, James and Lena Milton. Sandra was known for her mischievous nature, often sneaking into the officers' club and she fondly remembered attending the wedding of John and Jackie Kennedy.
At 17, she married the love of her life, Albert Crowe, in a quaint church in Newport, RI. They started their family in Cincinnati, OH, having three children: Douglas, Robert, and Karen. Sandra was a devoted wife and mother, single-handedly raising their children while Al was deployed to Vietnam.
The family later moved to St Petersburg, FL, and eventually settled in Houston, TX. Sandra worked as a pharmacy tech at Eckerd/CVS Pharmacy for over 30 years. She was a doting mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who loved hosting family gatherings during the holidays, bringing out the fine china while she and Al prepared perfect dinners. Her liver and onions and stuffed steaks were family favorites for special occasions.
Sandy loved Elvis, her bell collection, and the hand-blown glass displayed in her home. She loved sharing her music with her family, often playing Christmas records long before the holiday season, much to Al's chagrin. Sandy loved to call bingo, almost as much as she loved getting her hair done every Thursday no matter what was going on and became the bingo lady at Northwest Assistance Ministries and her retirement community.
Sandra is preceded in death by her grandparents, mother, father, husband, and daughter-in-law. She is survived by her three children, Doug (Debbie), Robert, and Karen; five grandchildren, Thom Crowe (Christine Sharp-Crowe), Cassie Kraus (fiancé Ricardo Guiterrez), Douglas Crowe Jr. (Jocelyn), Michael Crowe (fiancé Kara Hale), and Ashlyn Crowe; and ten great-grandchildren, Kade Boone, Ricardo Guiterrez Jr, Robert Guiterrez, Logan Crowe, Lauren Crowe, Kaylee Crowe, Paisley Metcalf, Ruby Guiterrez, Rafael Guiterrez, Liam Crowe, Elise Crowe, Rachel Guiterrez, Douglas Crowe III, Warren Crowe, Marylynn Hale, and Madeline Hale.
Sandy's love and warmth will be dearly missed by her family and friends. We are grateful for the cherished memories she left behind.
Join us as we remember Sandy on Friday, March 15, 2024, at 10:30 am at Veterans Funeral Services, 10567 Veterans Memorial Dr, Houston, TX 77038.
