Christinea Kathleen Crenshaw, affectionately known as Angel, passed away on Sunday, August 18, 2024, after years of battling many medical issues. Her final moments were spent peacefully with her faithful husband, Jerry, by her side, holding her hand as she went to walk with Jesus.

She was born May 30, 1967, in Roanoke, Virginia. Angel and Jerry met in church as kids. They dated for four years before getting married on September 20, 1990. They raised two wonderful sons, Cameron and Dylan, and were actively involved in their grandchildren's lives. Nana, as her 4 grandchildren called her, loved spending time with her grandkids and taking them out. She loved to craft, color, watch movies, and play games.

Angel is survived by her loving husband, Jerry, two sons and daughters-in-law, Cameron and wife, Kristina, Dylan and wife, Jamie, grandchildren, Ariana, A'Zayleigh, Braylin, Kaylani, and loving parents, Richard and Kathy Heller. Christinea joins her sister, Lisa, in heaven.

The family will hold a celebration of life at a later date to honor Angel and the joy she brought to so many people. She will be dearly missed by all who knew her. Memorial donations are not necessary but greatly appreciated.
