Johnny Ray Crocker

 Johnny Ray Crocker, 59, passed away on Tuesday, January 28, 2025, at Anderson Regional Medical Center in Meridian, Mississippi. A memorial service to honor Johnny’s life will be held at a later date.

Johnny was born May 13, 1965, to Billy Wayne and Willie Frances Taylor Crocker in Winston County, Mississippi. He was a member of Flower Ridge Church.

Johnny is survived by two daughters, Rebekah Daniel (Quinn) and Taylor (Josh) Johns all of Louisville. One of his greatest joys was being “Paw Paw” to his eight grandchildren: Peyton Daniel, Kase Daniel, Everly Johns, Scarlett Daniel, Owen Johns, Hallie Crocker, Beau Taylor Johns, and Izabelle Crocker. Johnny is also survived by his siblings: Bobby Crocker, Joe Crocker (Jeannie), Mary Ann Adams, and Annette White (Joe); his sister-in-law, Beth Woodcock (Jason); in addition to his nieces, nephews, other family members, and friends. He is preceded in death by his son, Jonathan Clark Crocker; parents; and sister, Teresa Gail Crocker.

Memorials in honor of Johnny may be given to Massey Funeral Home to help defray funeral expenses.
