Orion J. Crockwell CHARLESTOWN — Orion Jacob Crockwell, 13, loving son, brother, nephew and cousin, was taken from us too soon, on Feb. 7, 2022, after his battle with post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) and kidney failure. Orion was born Aug. 4, 2008, in Springfield, Vermont. Orion loved spending time with his sister and family, watching his favorite YouTubers, playing video games, baking and helping his mother garden and raise bunnies on their small family farm. The short time we had with Orion will leave lasting memories of his infectious smile, kind heart and unbeatable will to live, laugh and love. Anyone blessed with time with Orion knows just how amazing of a young boy he was. Orion leaves lasting memories with his mother, Tina “Libby” Murchie; his sister, Lillian Hope Runnells; his mom’s husband, Mark Murchie; his father, David Crockwell; his brother, Mason Crockwell; his aunts, Tanya Graves, Heather Smith, Jessica Crockwell, Tasha Dyer; paternal grandfather, David Crockwell Sr.; and cousins, Brianna, Jeremy, Jenna, Marijane, Keagan, Ashlee, Damien, Joshua, Noah, Elijah, Nevaeh, Alexis, Emerson, Dominic and Rebecca.
