Frances Nedry Crenshaw

December 29, 1930 — December 12, 2025

Frances Nedry Crenshaw passed away peacefully in hospice care on December 12, 2025, in Murfreesboro, TN. Born on December 29, 1930, in Dyer County, TN, Frances's journey through life was marked by an unwavering commitment to her family.

Frances' heart was her husband of 69 years, Olive. They spent many years traveling the United States in their RV. They were founding members of the Golden Circle Good Sam Camping Club. Frances spent many years crafting with the Madison County Home Demonstration Club and various painting groups. All of her grandchildren, and great grandchildren have benefited from her sewing and crochet skills with all receiving handmade blankets. In later years, both Frances and Olive happily supported the Carl Perkins Child Abuse Center with regular donations of clothing and handmade blankets. They were active members of Englewood Baptist Church from the 1980s until Olive's passing in 2020.

Left to cherish her memory is her daughters Colleen Crenshaw, and Deborah C. Price (Martin), 4 grandchildren, and 8 great grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her loving husband, Olive C. Crenshaw, and son James Michael Crenshaw.

In lieu of flowers, the family wishes to continue their support of Englewood Baptist Church and Carl Perkins Child Abuse Center.
