William Kyle "Pee Wee" Croft, a beloved husband, father, and grandfather, passed away peacefully on October 29, 2023, at his residence in Blakely, Georgia. Born on December 13, 1947, in Pensacola, Pee Wee was a man of kindness and warmth, known for his ability to make friends wherever he went.
Pee Wee dedicated 33 years of his life to Georgia Pacific, where he was not only a diligent worker but also a source of joy and laughter. He had a unique talent for drawing cartoons of life events, and caricatures of his coworkers, a hobby that brought smiles to many faces. An avid outdoorsman, he found great pleasure in fishing and hunting. His love for cars was only surpassed by his love for storytelling, a trait that endeared him to all who knew him.
Pee Wee was preceded in death by his parents, RV Croft and Opal Martin Croft. He is survived by his loving wife of 35 years, Diana Miller Croft, his daughter, Leann Cantlon (Scott), his sons, Keith Croft (Dawn) and Brent Croft, his stepchildren, Wayne and Jennifer Hunt, his sisters, Ann Holland and Mary Nelson (Ronald), and several grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Pee Wee's life was a testament to his kind nature and his ability to bring joy to others. His memory will live on in the hearts of his loved ones and all who were fortunate to know him.
A memorial service will be held at 1 PM Saturday, November 18, 2023, at the family residence. 111 Cannon Road Blakely, GA. 398323
