It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Karyn Crownet, born on August 21, 1958, in Manassas Park, Virginia, United States. She peacefully departed from this world on July 9, 2023, leaving behind cherished memories and a profound void in the lives of her loved ones.

Karyn was the beloved daughter of Steve and Bonnie (Joy) Prinkcett. She was a devoted partner to Collin Crownet, sharing a life filled with love, laughter, and unwavering support. Together, they built a beautiful family, raising three beautiful children: Pamela, affectionately known as Pammy; Kamala, known as Kammy; and Tamela, fondly called Tammy. Karyn served as a loving and nurturing mother, instilling in her children the values of compassion, resilience, and kindness.

Karyn adored her role as a grandmother, bringing immense joy to the lives of her five grandchildren. Joshua, Collin Jr., Tamara, Roland, and Kelly, they were the light of her life, and she treasured every moment spent with them.

Professionally, Karyn made a significant impact as a 7th Grade English Teacher. Through her unwavering dedication and passion, she inspired countless young minds and nurtured their love for literature and education.
