Jeffery Darrell Crisp, Sr., 58, of Kings Mountain, NC, passed away on March 30, 2024 at Atrium Health Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, NC.

Born in Gaston County, NC, he was son of the late Darrell Crisp and Joann Brandon Crisp. Jeff served his country honorably as a member of the U.S. Navy, then worked for 20 years as a Nuclear Energy Instructor with Duke Energy. He enjoyed the outdoors, especially when he got a chance to go hunting or fishing with his family. Jeff loved baseball and was an avid Atlanta Braves fan. He was proficient working with his hands or with tools and could fix anything that was brought to him. Unfailingly affable, Jeff never met a stranger. Above all, he was a wonderful, loving, attentive husband, father, and friend. Jeff served as a father figure to more than just his own children, also welcoming their friends into his home and his heart. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
