Dolores Crawford Gibbs, lovingly known as Sugie, to her family and friends, went home to be with the Lord on August 27, 2017. Sugie was married to the love of her life, John Daniel Gibbs, Sr., for 45 years. Sugie had a heart of gold and spent her working life caring for others as an aide at Humana Hospital (Springhill Medical Center) in Springhill, LA. She served the Lord faithfully with her church family at New Sarepta Baptist Church in Sarepta, LA. Her faith was always strong, even after losing a son, daughter and a grandson, all at a young age. Sugie loved her family and especially enjoyed spending quality time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She kept a drawer in her refrigerator filled with chocolates for her grands and the neighborhood kids, who she treated like her own. Sugie always welcomed everyone and could never have too much family. She loved to cook and many of the memories the family will cherish are from time spent with her in the kitchen and around the table.
She is survived by her daughter, Donna G. Robinson and husband, Dr. James Robinson of Bossier City; granddaughter, Angela Pine Mills and husband, Chad; granddaughter-in-law, Bridget Pine; great-grandchildren, Hayden Mills, Parker Mills, Haley Pine, Ryker Pine and Maddox Pine; step-grandchildren, Patrick Robinson and wife, Cherie; Sarah Williams and husband, John; Emily Claycomb and husband, Doug, Erin Foster and husband Gary; step-great grandchildren, Tim Robinson, Katie LeChuga and husband, Frankie, Rebecca Robinson, Caroline Williams, Drew Maienschein, Graham Claycomb and Baylee Foster; a special niece, Angela Newsom and husband, Wayne and son, Trey; a treasured friend, Debbie Clark Jones; and many other loving family members.
Mrs. Gibbs was preceded in death by her husband, John Daniel Gibbs, Sr.; a son, John Daniel Gibbs, Jr.; a daughter, Angela Marie Gibbs; her parents, Lester and Agnes Crawford; sister, Lena Patterson; brother, Carl Crawford; and grandson, Jonathan Scott Pine.
