Jessy and her boys - Casey and Jordan. Jordan Albert Crabb, my newest grandson, of course! Jordan was born on June 24, 1996 at 3:36am in Ormond Beach, Florida. He weighed in at 8 pounds, 4 ounces and was 20.75 inches long. He's pictured here with his BIG brother - Casey (6)! Jordan is now an almost three - terror around here and home. His favorite food is cucumbers - fresh from the garden. He's also been known to eat an entire pea crop before it gets out of the garden (but not from a can - please!). That's my daughter and my son-in-law, in case you don't know! Jessy was born in Fargo, Cass County, North Dakota on 12 January 1970. Jessy was secretary of Students of Texas Against Narcotics and Drinking (STAND), the Dulles High School branch of the Texas War on Drugs. She graduated from Dulles in the spring of 1988. Jessy was the student manager of the Girls' Basketball team at Dulles for three years and lettered two of those years. She attended college at Houston Community College. Jessy was married to Mark Crabb on May 12, 1990 at New Hope Lutheran Church in Missouri City, Texas. Jessy and her family moved to Ormond Beach, Florida where they now live and work. Jessy is now the office manager in the same office as her father. Jessy has two children, Casey and Jordan. Mark's father is Steve Crabb. Mark grew up in Ohio and later moved to Missouri City, Texas. He graduated from John Foster Dulles High School in Missouri City and then joined the US Navy. Mark was stationed on the USS Midway, an aircraft carrier based in Japan. He had spent about one year aboard the Midway before flying home on leave for his wedding. Mark arrived in Texas only four days before the wedding and returned to the Midway about two weeks after for about one more year at sea. After completing his time in the service, Mark returned to Texas and then moved to Florida. He is now working with a heating, ventilating and air conditioning company installing ductwork in buildings and doing other HVAC work. Mark also has been going to school at night to learn more about heating and air conditioning. |
