Addison Whitman Crews
Our Daddy, Addison Whitman ‘Buddy’ Crews of Eatonton, Georgia joined our Lord and Savior from the mountain tops of the Cumberland Gap in Tennessee Friday, May 22nd, 2020. He lived a healthy and very active life of 85 years doing what he loved up to the last second of his life. Even though we were not prepared for him to leave, it was a tremendous comfort to family and friends that his love for the Lord and being His servant to those in need are what we remember most as Daddy was taken into the Kingdom of Heaven.
Dad was a sales representative with Hormel Foods for 40 years before he would retire and be blessed to enjoy twenty-five years of a healthy retirement on Lake Oconee. During his years of retirement, he started the Central Georgia Christian Food Bank in Eatonton, GA where he would serve as President until he passed away. Daddy and his many volunteers of the surrounding areas supplied and fed many needy and impoverished people of the Georgia, Kentucky, and West Virginia areas. With a heavy heart and tear-filled eyes, he shared with us that he always wished he could do more for these communities and was so appreciative of all the volunteers and their dedicated hearts and souls.
My sister and I want to deeply thank all of God’s servants who volunteered many hours of their free time to meet the hungry need of many.
