Crawford Ingraham

TSGT Crawford Ingraham Jr., USAF Ret., age 92, of Fayetteville, North Carolina passed away on Saturday, January 7, 2023. He was born to the late Crawford and Irene Varga Ingraham in Plainfield, New Jersey the day after Christmas in 1930.

Crawford joined the Air Force and served his country honorably and faithfully including deployments to Vietnam during the war and Germany as part of the Occupation Forces. Having spent time making history himself, he enjoyed looking into the pages of history, having been referred to as a "history buff", and was a lover of history and knowledge gained through study of those who came before us. His love of flying not only blossomed in the Air Force but continued after as he had his pilot license and enjoyed the splendors of viewing GOD's creation from the cockpit, "Up, Up and Away, into the wild blue yonder".

Left to cherish his memory are his brother, Edward Ingraham of Prescott, Arizona; niece, Susan; nephew, Richard and Edward; his fur baby, Tom the Cat; several cousins and a host of close special friends.

A visitation with Family and Friends will be held on Friday, January 13 from 10 to 11 am at Reeves Funeral Home in Hope Mills. Funeral services and rendering of military honors will be held folowing the visitation at Sandhills State Veterans Cemetery at 12 Noon.
