We are mourning the loss of our loved ones, Matthew Boegli, 29, Crystal Ross, 29, Breighton (Woody Woo), 4, and twins, Maddison (Sissy Lala) and Peighton (Peany), 3, of Townsend, due to a fatal crash on June 19.
Crystal Marie was the first grandchild born into the family of Charles and Patty Brewer, she had dark hair and deep dark eyes. Crystal’s nickname was Ria. Crystal was a good baby and as she grew she loved Barbie’s and everything girly and pink. 1n 1992 Crystal had a new baby brother, she would try to put him into her doll stroller and help take care of him like her own baby. Crystal had everything “Pooh” from her kitchen canisters to her bathroom decorations and her slippers. Even her cat was named Pooh. Crystal had a lot of friends and could manage to be on the go constantly because she was full of energy. Crystal worked as a daycare provider, casino runner/bartender, and was an Executive Housekeeper for the past 6 years. Crystal had dog named Dragon (Goon). She would take him everywhere, they were inseparable prior to Breighton coming along. She would get her dog a Cheeseburger from McDonalds every day. Crystal had her hands full with 3 young children, a job, and only 1 vehicle and wouldn’t hesitate to ask for help.
Matt and Crystal met in 2008 and started their family in 2009. Life was not always easy and they required help from friends and family quite regularly, but they would press on and keep going day after day.

Crystal – I will forever remember you as a young lady I meet 10 years ago. You always made me laugh and was very thoughtful. Over the years when we would run into each other you always lit up talking about your children. God be with you, Mathew and your children. You will be missed. – Mary S,

Crystal is my great neice and her children are my great great neice and nephew. My heart aches with our loss. When I came to visit, I miss her running into her grandma Pattys house and throwing her arms around me saying..”hi auntie”. The world will not be the same without her and her family. May God be with her family and friends. Amen. RIP, Your auntie Glenda

I read of this tragedy and wanted to say how deeply sorry I am for the loss of your precious girl and her precious family. I don’t know why God allowed for this to happen but I know that his mercy endures forever. Your grief I know must be great and I cannot wrap my mind around the debths of your heart break. What I do know is that your faith can bring you some measure of comfort and peace. When we can’t pray he knows whats in our heart. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Im so very sorry!

Dear family of Chrystal,
I am so sorry for the tragic loss of your daugjhter , her husband and your grandchildren.
We may wonder why this horrible tragedy had to happen, or if their is anything to look forward to? At terribly sad times like this, those left behind need comfort and the Bible is the best place to find it.
Jesus well knew the Bible statement:” Time and unforeseen occurrence befall them all”[Ecclesiastes 9:11]. He knew that
sometimes bad things just happen.
The wonderful future resurrection hope is the promise found at John 5:28,29.
Revelation 21:3,4 states that death will be no more. and pain
will be no more, the former things will have passed away.
Our Creator, Jehovah God, by means of his son Jesus, is going to bring about these wonderful changes.
I hope as you read these texts in your Bible they will be of comfort to you.
There is much Bible-based comfort to be found on the websitejw.org
sincerely dianne mullins

I meet Crystal many years ago sitting at Country Kitchen she over heard me talking about my home town of Plentywood Montana, and turned out she need a ride there and asked if i could help her out, So i did, sitting in the car for 10 hours we became friends, she was always out spoken and always up for having fun, Over time i lost track of her and always wanted to find her again, It is with a very heavy heart finding she has been taken from us so young. you will be missed Crystal.
