Cora (Becky) Crooms Obituary
Surrounded by her loving family, Cora Rebecca (Becky) Crooms passed peacefully from this life on July 9, 2025, at UT Health in Tyler, Texas. Becky was born January 23, 1939, in Shelby County to Evan and Lee Ola Cain and graduated from Nacogdoches High School. After graduation, she attended the Texas Beauty Academy in Tyler, Texas where she obtained her cosmetology license. Her future was set when she met Kervin Dial Crooms. They were married in 1959 and became the proud parents of Kervin Jeff (Jeff) Crooms who was born May 10, 1961.
Though Becky’s passing leaves an immeasurable void, her legacy continues in the countless lives she touched. Her legacy is one of grace and quiet impact, and her absence leaves a space that can never be filled. Yet, her spirit will live on in every life she touched, and in the example, she set for all who knew her. She will be remembered for her graciousness, warm hospitality, and her amazing culinary skills. She took pride in her role as a mother, grandmother, and great grandmother.
