Damon Tyler Crumb

Damon "Tyler" Crumb was born in Allentown, Pennsylvania on January 10, 1963, and died at home in Brandon, Mississippi on November 17, 2023, from young-onset (early-onset) Alzheimer’s Disease. Tyler was a graduate of Huron High School in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He spent his career working in the automotive industry, with more than 20 years working at Varsity Ford in Ann Arbor in the Service Department as a service advisor and service manager. He loved his family and friends, auto racing, vintage cars, traveling, camping, Michigan football, the Smoky Mountains, hummingbirds, his dog Zola and grand dog Kira who faithfully stayed by his side watching over him.

 

He is survived by his devoted wife Susan Therese Varcie; stepsons (and caregivers) Christopher Adam Varcie and Darren Andrew Varcie; his devoted sisters-in-law Judith (Ed) Beach and Meredith Lucius; his stepmother Cathy Crumb; mother Nancy (David) Hobbie-Lowe; brothers Christopher and Sean (Bonnie); stepsister Maureen; daughter Erin; son Brian; and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his beloved father Damon Lee Crumb; his mother-in-law Monica Margaret Austin Jones; and brother-in-law Stephen Bruce Jones.

 

His family wishes to express sincere gratitude to his hospice nursing team Brooke Barnes, Meagan Smith and his “best friend” Zandreya Hollie for the care provided during the past eight months.
