Mrs. Crawford

Tillie Worthington Crawford, 96, passed from the toil of this earth to her reward in Heaven on Dec. 12, 2009.
Mrs. Crawford was born on Dec. 11, 1913, and lived on her home place on the Clift Pike in May's Lick for 86 of her 96 years. After breaking a hip at age 88 she moved from the farm in May's Lick to Flemingsburg to be near her son Jim Crawford. In 2008 she moved to Georgetown, Texas, to live with her daughter, Lillian Black, where she enjoyed a year of being surrounded and deservedly spoiled by her many grandchildren.
Mrs. Crawford was the widow of Robert Yates Crawford, farmer and Maysville Tobacco Market supervisor. She was the mother of James Yates Crawford of Flemingsburg and Lillian Crawford Black of Georgetown, Texas. She is survived by 16 grandchildren and 18 great grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by a daughter, Betty Lou Wright.
Mrs. Crawford was a lady of many talents. She could sew like a professional tailor, cook as well as any chef, grow an acre of garden and raise enough roses and gladiolus to have floral arrangements for the church through the summer.
Mrs. Crawford was an adored grandmother who was always ready for a game of Old Maids or Concentration. She took the grandchildren on long walks teaching them about the surroundings as they went. Piling all the children into the back of the old truck she would take them on an adventure to the North Fork on back of the farm. Summers called for at least one trip to Aberdeen to eat Chili Dogs on the bank of the Ohio River, a tradition that started with the first grandchild 47 years ago.
Through the years she knew much happiness but also much grief and hardship but she kept a positive attitude and a smile. Her advise would be as she often repeated, "Just say a prayer and go with the flow." She will be greatly missed.
Graveside services will be conducted in May's Lick Cemetery at 10 a.m., Wednesday, Dec. 16, 2009.
Arrangements by Palmer Funeral Home of May’s Lick.

Full operation expected Thursday, Dec. 17

FLEMINGSBURG, Ky. – Highway crews will activate a new traffic signal this week at the intersection of KY 57 and the AA Highway in Lewis County.

Crews worked Monday installing pavement markings and vehicle detection equipment. The signal is expected to be in full operation Thursday, Dec. 17, weather permitting.

The signal was approved as a highway safety measure following a public meeting at Tollesboro this summer in which residents, legislators and local officials voiced concerns the intersection.

The new signal will control traffic approaching from all four directions, including the use of double-red beacons and reflective yellow backplates for better visibility. Advance warning flashers east and west of the intersection will alert motorists that the signal is about to change.
