I had the honor of playing Cratie's husband in "The Arkansas Traveler" when I was a teenager! She was so incredibly kind and sweet, and she always had a smile for us. The world lost a beautiful soul!

My heart was broken when I learned of Cratie’s passing. She was a close friend of my momma’s and they enjoyed calling each other or visiting whenever they got the opportunity. Cratie was always friendly, sweet, kind, and loyal to those she loved. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends who are mourning her passing.

RIP Sweet friend
My deepest sympathy to you and your family, Tim. I always admired Cratie, she was a beautiful and blessed lady. We love her very much.
Our hearts are so heavy for your loss. Besides sharing a family relationship, Miss Cratie was a very dear friend from my young adulthood, when I did an internship at the DHS office with her.
We’d reconnected in recent years and I’m so grateful for that opportunity.
Even though my heart is broken, I know she is happy, whole, and rejoicing with Jesus. I can’t wait to see her again one of these days.
You are all in our hearts and prayers.
