Cassandra Creel

It is with profound sadness and heartfelt love that we announce the passing of Cassandra Creel, who left this world on April 16, 2026, at the age of 53, after bravely facing the challenges of illness. Born on October 10, 1972, in the welcoming town of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Cassandra was a beacon of joy and warmth to everyone who had the privilege of knowing her. Cassandra was the cherished daughter of the late Peggy and Bubba Cristwell. Her parents instilled in her values of laughter, love, and resilience, which she carried throughout her life. She is now reunited with them, leaving behind a legacy of kindness and an indelible mark on all who knew her. She is survived by her beloved husband of ten years, Raymond Creel, who was her steadfast partner and closest confidant. Together, they built a life filled with love and shared passions. Cassandra was a devoted and loving mother to her sons, Matthew Cristwell and Justin Johnson, and her daughters, Leanna and Mackenzie Johnson. Her family was the center of her universe, and she treasured every moment spent with them. Cassandra had a profound love for family gatherings, which she often enriched with her remarkable sense of humor. Known for her practical jokes and infectious laughter, she had an uncanny ability to bring joy to any room she entered. Her humor was only matched by her talent for sewing and knitting, crafts she pursued with both skill and passion, often creating beautiful pieces that her family will cherish forever. While Cassandra's physical presence will be dearly missed, her spirit will live on in the hearts of those she touched. Her family takes comfort in the memories of her laughter, her loving nature, and the warmth she brought into their lives. In respect of Cassandra's wishes, a private funeral will be held. The family extends an invitation to join them in a small celebration of her life on Tuesday, April 21, 2026, at 1:00 pm, hosted at the home she shared with Raymond. It will be a time for family and friends to gather, share stories, and remember the light that Cassandra brought into their lives. In this time of sorrow, let us celebrate Cassandra's life and the joy she brought to all. Her memory will forever remain a source of comfort and inspiration. Rest in peace, dear Cassandra. You will be deeply missed and forever loved.
