Terri Lynn Husley-Crawford

February 1, 1960 — April 9, 2026

Biloxi

With heavy hearts, we announce the peaceful passing of our beloved sister, Terri Lynn Husley-Crawford, who left her worldly home on April 9, 2026, at the age of 66.

Terri was born on February 1, 1960, and lived a life filled with love, dedication, and unwavering devotion to her family. She was a cherished sister, aunt, and friend whose warmth, kindness, and joyful spirit touched everyone who knew her.

Terri was married to Kevin Crawford for 15 years, and throughout her life she held family at the center of everything she did. She had a special gift for loving others deeply, especially her nieces and nephews, whom she treated as if they were her own children. Her heart was fullest when surrounded by family, laughter, and shared memories.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Orin “Mac” Husley and Martha Sue Wenger Husley; her nieces Ashley Zapata and Macy Thornton; and her nephew Joey Unger.

Terri is survived by her stepson, Nickolaus (Bryan) Crawford; her loving siblings, Monica (Garry) Mason, Kendall (Dana) Husley, and Lindell (Wendi) Husley; and a large, close-knit family of nieces and nephews she adored, including Michael Santa Cruz, Maria Santa Cruz, September Thornton, Jasmine Crawford, Jeremy (Amanda) Husley, Cameron Husley, Kayla (Dustin) Demelo, Danielle Husley, Courtney Henderson, Sarah Smith, and Haley (Tyler) Prowant. She is also survived by many great-nieces and great-nephews whom she loved dearly and spoiled whenever she could.

Terri had a Masters Degree in Engineering and was a dedicated professional who spent over 40 years in the shipbuilding industry, working as a Weight Analyst with Bollinger Shipyard, as well as with NASSCO and Ingalls Shipbuilding. She remained active in her field as a member of the Senior Weight Analysis group.

She was deeply involved in her community, serving as an active member of Coalville United Methodist Church. Terri was also the current President of the Woolmarket Lions Club, where she had been a devoted member for 31 years, giving back and serving others with compassion and pride. She was also a proud member of the D'iberville High School Alumni Class of 1978.

Outside of her professional and community life, Terri found joy in traveling, collecting Native American memorabilia, and spending time with her family. She loved tending to her flowerbed, watching her chickens, and capturing life’s moments through photography. If you knew Terri, you knew her love for preserving memories—she was always the one with a camera in hand, ensuring that every gathering was remembered for years to come.

Terri’s legacy is one of love, generosity, and connection. Her presence brought light to every room, and her memory will continue to live on in the countless lives she touched.

Pallbearers will be Jefferson Broadus, Jay Broadus, Michael Santa Cruz, Jeremy Husley, Brayden Thornton, and David Zurick. Honorary pall bearers are Kurt Holland, Stewart Lee, Kevin Lee and members of the Woolmarket Lions Club.

She will be deeply missed and forever loved by all who had the privilege of knowing her.

Funeral Services will be held at Coalville United Methodist Church on Tuesday, April 14, 2026 at 12:00 pm. Friends may visit from 10:00 am until service time. Interment will follow at Coalville Cemetery.

In leu of flowers, Terri would have loved donations to the Woolmarket Lions Club to continue the work of caring for children with vision problems.
