Charles Richard "Rick" Crenshaw, Sr.

March 6, 1958 — August 20, 2024

Greenville, SC

Charles Richard "Rick" Crenshaw, Sr., a man known for his kind heart, infectious humor, and thoughtful nature, passed away peacefully with his family by his side at his home in Greenville County, SC, on August 20, 2024. Born on March 6, 1958, Rick's life was a testament to the joy and laughter he brought into the lives of all who knew him.

Rick grew up alongside his siblings Sandra Davis (Dean) of Easley, Jackie Broome of Easley, Darlene Revis (William) of Greenville, and Darrell Crenshaw (Karen) of Easley. He was preceded in death by his parents Ralph and Geneva (Bill) Crenshaw, as well as his brothers Steve and Tommy Crenshaw, and sisters Evelyn Allen, Geraldine Reed, Ollie Jean Talley, and Diane Allen.

Rick's legacy is carried on through his beloved children, Jodie Crenshaw Turner, Charles Richard "Ricky" Crenshaw Jr., and Cash Richard Crenshaw, who will forever cherish the memories of their father's love and guidance. His spirit will also live on through his adored granddaughters, Logan Turner, Lexie Williams, and Savannah George, who brought immense joy to his later years.

A dedicated worker, Rick retired from Green Valley Country Club. Rick's passions extended beyond his work. He was an avid outdoorsman, finding solace and excitement at the lake, where he could often be found fishing or camping. His love for Ford Mustangs and Jeeps was more than a hobby; it was a reflection of his adventurous spirit and his appreciation for the open road. Rick's sense of humor was unmatched, and he had a unique talent for making people laugh, ensuring that his presence was always a source of happiness.

Those who knew Rick will recall a man who was not only funny but also deeply kind and considerate. He had a knack for noticing the little things that mattered to people and went out of his way to show his care and support. His thoughtfulness was a beacon of light that warmed the hearts of his family, friends, and all who had the pleasure of crossing paths with him.

As we bid farewell to Rick, we celebrate a life well-lived, full of love, laughter, and the cherished moments that define a life's worth. His memory will be held close in the hearts of those who loved him, and his stories will be told with smiles and laughter, just as he would have wanted.

Charles Richard "Rick" Crenshaw, Sr. will be deeply missed, but the impact of his kind, funny, and thoughtful nature will continue to resonate with all who were fortunate enough to know him.
