Obituary: Louise F. Krazit

Louise F. Krazit, age 89, of Gotha, Florida, went peacefully to Heaven on Nov. 14, 2020. She was born May 25, 1931, in Kendrick, Florida, to David Mitchell Ford and Flora Mozelle Farr Ford of Newberry, Florida.

She graduated from Ocala High School in 1949. Louise was married to her beloved husband for more than 63 years before they were separated by his death in 2013.

Louise worked in Ocala and Orlando at various accounting and tax offices. She took great pride in her accounting skills she developed and continued using throughout her life. Louise was a full-time homemaker; she enjoyed reading, traveling, the beach and playing Bunco, but her pride and joy were her three children. Louise was a dedicated and loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.

Louise was preceded in death by her parents; her sister, Dorothy “Dot” Chastain; and husband, Bennie P. Krazit.

She is survived by daughters, Brenda Gonzalez (Wally), Louisville, Kentucky, Beckie Findlay (Alan), Naples, Florida; and son, Dave Krazit (Debbie), Gotha, Florida; grandchildren, Meri Lou Mattingly (Keith), Lori Ann Krieger (Jeremy), Cindy Lea Mudge (Michael), Charlie Gonzalez (Ashley), Stephanie Ruhmel (Steve), Danny Krazit (Gina); great-grandchildren, MaKale Slusher, Circe Mudge, Bradley Krieger, Cecilia Krieger, Ava Lou Mattingly, Autumn Mattingly, Riley Ruhmel, Beckett Ruhmel, Alice Gonzalez and Jaxon Krazit.
