FOSTER, Crystal Ann Margaret

1982 – 2021

 

Crystal Ann Margaret Foster was a caring daughter, sister, auntie, cousin and friend. She left this world suddenly on Monday, October 4, 2021, at the age of 38. 

Crystal was born to Glendene Grant and Dwight Foster on December 29, 1982, in Kamloops, B.C., where she grew up, went to school and met most of her friends. 

Crystal loved spending time in the kitchen creating delicious meals for her family and friends, so much so, that she made a career out of it. Crystal spent many years cooking in kitchens and camps, a job she loved very much.

Crystal had a passion for music, singing, dancing and festivals. Crystal loved to dress up in colourful outfits and bright lights. She met a lot of amazing people throughout the years at work and at her festivals, and each one of them held a special place in her heart.

Crystal was an amazing auntie to all her nephews and nieces, blood or not blood. She loved spending time with all the kids and always wanted to take them out to do things together and spoil them, such as sneaking them outside for a midnight glowstick swim in the pool or going and grabbing slurpees and McDonald’s at 3am while they visited Calgary. They are all so lucky to have had an auntie like her. Crystal had a heart of gold and treated all her family and friends with kindness and compassion. She would always do whatever she could to help a friend.    

Crystal was preceded in death by her father, Dwight William Foster, August 31, 1958 – August 6, 2020; her niece, Lailah Ann Arnold, November 23, 2012 – November 23, 2012; and her sister, presumed, Jessica Edith Louise Foster, May 27, 1984 – unknown. 

Crystal is survived by her mother, Glendene; and stepfather, Jim; her sisters, Katie (Jake) and Jennee (Catlin); her nephews, Matt and Jacobus; nieces, Ilianna and Serenity; as well as many cousins, aunties and uncles. She will always be remembered by her heart of gold, her beautiful smile, her infectious laugh and her kind, compassionate spirit. 

Crystal had a lot of struggles throughout the years, but just know she is now at peace & free.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all today. Crystal has touched so many lives in life and so many more in peace. She has been able to bring people together with a common goal, to help her Mum, Glendene Grant, her family and friends get the support they need to deal with her tragic passing. Crystal has created an atmosphere of love, laughter, memories, tears, storytelling, caring and support for each other. Thank you for being you Crystal. Hugs love and support for all of you. Crystal watch over your Mum. She needs you more than you will ever know. God Bless all of you. RIP Crystal. The torment is over.

Deeply sorry for the loss of your precious Crystal. Though I did not know her personally I did hear about her through her mama who always sang her praises. I know without a doubt she was a beautiful soul and that she will be deeply missed and always remembered. May those who loved her find comfort in the Lord. God bless!

I’m so sorry for your loss. Sending all the loving hugs that I can at this moment in time❤️

Dear auntie I miss you everyday. I've been helping grandma through this tough time and comforting her hugging her every time I see her. I wish you where still here but I know now your at peace and watching over us and helping us, like the one time we were driving and there was a train and we all had to use the bathroom but there was a train and it just ended but there was another one but you lifted the gate for us quickly and we all said " omg it is auntie helping us". I just wanna say I miss you and I hope your happy with your dad and hopefully with auntie Jessie. One time when I was doing the dishes and I was hanging out with you and having a party and you knocked a cup over and it was your favorite colors. I miss you auntie

I love you so much Big Sister! I will always cherish the memories we have. Thank you for being my sister and always looking out for me! I miss you so much!

Condolences to you and your family at this sad time. We’re sorry to hear of your loss and praying for Crystal’s rest in eternal peace. Glendene Bovell & family

My condolences and she is at peace now will always live her for the person she was and she was always happy when we were together miss her laugh already

I have never had the privilege of personally meeting Glendene and family. But I feel I know her through her daughter Jesse. My thoughts and prayers are with you all as you say farewell for now to Crystal. God speed her love. In the arms of the Angels

We truly wish we had met this lovely woman - she sounds like someone we would like very much. Fortunately we've had the pleasure of getting to know her mother, Glendene Grant and we know that there is nothing but love and loyalty in this family. They have been through so much pain, and they still carry on, stronger, more aware of the uglier sides of this world, but always sharing to help others. It is a blessing to know Glendene and we hope Crystal will now be at peace and will keep watch over her family.

Glendene and family, I am so so sorry for your loss, its so tragic.. just know there are a lot of people out there for you,,, thanks to everyone that has helped Glendene and her family... again this is so sad, I am very sorry for your loss,,,

Oh my girl, my beautiful, precious baby girl. How will I get by without my loving Mini-Me, my DeeDoh, my heart? I've always been so grateful to have you as my daughter. You made me a Mommy. You were the love of life when you were born. All my girls, my grandkids & my Jim are the loves of my life and we all miss you tremendously, Crystal. Watch over us, Baby. Send signals. Help us find Jessie. Help us get answers for my beloved Fosters. Until we meet again, My Love.
