From the Grandchildren:

Crystal was a devoted and loving grandmother who found great joy in caring for and spending time with her grandchildren. To them, visits to their grandmother’s home were a source of excitement and comfort, often feeling as magical as a trip to Disneyland. In their younger years, she delighted in taking them on walks through the almond orchard, gently pulling them in a wagon and creating cherished memories.  She took great pleasure in treating her grandchildren to outings, whether enjoying a simple meal at McDonald’s, sharing pizza, or indulging them with their favorite foods. Thoughtful and intentional, she would set aside money throughout the year so she could take them out for special treats during their school breaks.  Crystal ensured her home was always welcoming and prepared for her grandchildren. She kept their favorite snacks readily available and thoughtfully provided for their needs with personal items such as toothbrushes, kids cups and plates, along with a special space just for play. She especially treasured hosting sleepovers, which brought her and her grandchildren much happiness.  She enjoyed engaging in meaningful activities with them, including working on puzzles, playing board games such as Sorry and checkers, going to the movies, and shopping. Her granddaughters fondly remember their Friday evening tradition of going out together to select movies to rent. Known for her sweet and gentle spirit, Crystal created a safe and loving environment where her grandchildren felt comfortable sharing their thoughts and hearts. She was a patient listener, and they could spend hours in conversation with her, always feeling deeply loved and understood.
