We are sad to announce that on April 18, 2023 we had to say goodbye to Melanie Tara Cranford (Newton, North Carolina). You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

She was predeceased by: her grandparents, Margaret "Christine" Stewart and James Stewart; her father-in-law Dwight Cranford; her uncle Eugene Gentle; and her aunt Crystal Sweet.

She is survived by: her husband Scott Cranford; her parents, James Stewart and Lydia Stewart; her sister Jennifer Stewart Smith (Todd); her uncle Robert Stewart (Marta); her cousin Luca Stewart; her mother-in-law Lee Roux (Rob); her nieces and nephews, Ava Smith, MacKenzie Roux, Sarah Wood (Joey), Ian Smith and Carter Roux; and her godchildren, Thomas, Emerson Hinnant, Julia Green, Sarah and Daniel Simmons.
