Crystal Church, 55, Jamestown, ND, passed away, peacefully in her sleep, on January 20th, 2019, at Manor Care in Fargo, ND after a long battle with diabetes and cancer.

Crystal was born in Fort Leonard Wood, MO on March 4th, 1963 to Lois Church. In her early years she spent time in Germany, from the age of 9 months until she was 3 1/2 years of age and then moved to Seaside, CA and remained there for a couple of years before moving to North Dakota. She attended elementary and Junior High in Marion, ND and finished her High School education at Jud High School graduating in 1980. After high school Crystal lived in Nortonville, ND until moving to Jamestown with her two daughters, Angela and Annalise.

Crystal spent many years working at Alpha Opportunities and Dynamics Marketing where she enjoyed serving others.

Crystal was artistic with many talents including making jewelry, making decorative wreaths, and hand knitting just to name a few. She enjoyed adult coloring books and word searches. The thing she enjoyed most was singing. You could find her on a Friday night singing karaoke, or in her living room singing with her kids and grandkids.

What Crystal took the most pride in was being a grandmother to her three grandchildren, Portcia, Iziaya, and Deklyn. They were the light of her life and meant everything to her.
