His family can be very proud, and our nation should be grateful, as we take note of Mr. Crabb's Army service during both World War II and the Korean War. We owe our freedom to the millions of men and women who served in our Armed Forces during those and our other wars.
May the Lord comfort you as you consider his legacy.
Sincerely,
Chaplain Joseph Benham of the Hill Country Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution, Kerrville

We met Omar and Marie when we were neighbors with Ken and June Moore. They became good friends and customers. Omar and I shared our love of fishing swapping countless stories over the years. They have always been truly wonderful people and I will miss my visits with him. His endless devotion to June during her illness stands as testiment to their love and his character. God bless!

We have happy memories of Omar and Marie during our many visits with them and Mama and Daddy (Estalene and Wesley). Either enjoying nature at a picnic table, eating in the Dillard's motorhome, or just sitting in our living room in Waco, Omar always had some "new" story to tell. We all miss him. Lonnie, Mary, Bobby and Wesley.

When we moved into the neighborhood, Omar and Marie were the first to welcome us and for many years were frequent guests walking our paths and stopping by the porch to visit. Wonderful stories, warm friendships and fond memories are the legacy which Omar left to us. God bless.

Uncle Omar will be missed greatly. I'll always remember him as being inquisitive & adventuresome, with a fondness for trivia. Uncle Omar's "radio" voice was put to good use with his love of story-telling, holding his audience for hours. He was kind & funny and loved his family very much. I'll miss him.
