>> October 21, 1958 - April 4, 2026 <<

Dennis Ray Crocker, son of Jimmy and Betty Matthews, died April 4, 2026.

Dennis was known for his quick wit, huge smile, and went out of his way 
to help family and friends whenever he could. Dennis enjoyed hunting, 
but really enjoyed being on the river relaxing and fishing - actually 
catching a fish was a bonus.

Dennis outlived his mother, Betty Matthews and his youngest sister, 
Tammy Matthews.

He is survived by our "Pops", Jim Matthews, his sisters, Linda Baker, 
Katie Ruskell (John), and Sandy Otteni (John); his brothers, Larry 
Crocker (Katheleen) and John Crocker; his children, Angel Torres 
(Chris), Michelle Crocker, Jennifer Lomeli (Vince), Maili Crocker, Jamie 
Babb, and Anthony Crocker; four grandchildren and a multitude of nieces 
and nephews whom he adored.

Dennis lived most of his life in Yuma and amassed a large number of 
friends.

We will miss him dearly.
