Alvin Edwin Crisp, 45 of Robbinsville, N.C., went home to be with the Lord on Monday, July 19, 2021, in Dalton, Ga.
He was the son of Sheila Lynn Crisp and the late Rev. Luther Crisp, who passed away on April 28, 2021.

Alvin had a contagious smile and a laugh that would fill any room. His light-hearted approach to life helped him face any obstacles that came his way. He had friends nationwide and was known in the construction industry as a very skilled diesel mechanic.

He has several nieces and nephews who will cherish his memory.
