Kimberly ‘Kim’ Crawford

Kimberly ‘Kim’ D. Crawford

Kim, loving daughter of the late Clarence J. Fogle and Carmen Drayton Fogle, passed away on January 16, 2026, at the age of 58.

Kimberly was born May 9, 1967 in Stratford, Connecticut, and later grew up in Fairfield, where she graduated from Roger Ludlowe High School. She continued her education at the University of Bridgeport, earning an Associate’s Degree in Fashion Merchandising.

In her early years, Kim had a love for fashion which she expressed through runway modeling and magazine work, a time that reflected her vibrant spirit and natural grace. Later in life, she devoted herself to a career as a special needs instructor, where her compassion, patience, and dedication made a lasting difference in the lives of the children and families she served.

She was especially passionate about homeopathic medicine and holistic science and continually sought to expand her knowledge as well as share with others. She was also a proud student of her Lumbee heritage and embraced the opportunity to learn more about her roots and culture.

Kim is survived by her two sons, Jordan Crawford of Nantucket, Massachusetts, and Brandon Crawford of Stratford, Connecticut. She is also lovingly remembered by her sisters, Rebecca Ericsson and Melissa Allen (Bentley Allen); her grandmother, Julia Fogle (102 yrs old); and many aunts, cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends who will forever hold her in their hearts.
