Thrine Reed Crain Obituary
Thrine Reed Crain was born on June 8, 1926, in Miles City, Montana to Raymond and Clara (Eiken) Reed. She attended the University of Montana until a recently returned WWII Marine, Donald Crain, caught her eye. She married him and in 1955 the new family moved to Spokane where they raised their children, started a business, and built two homes. Busy (Thrine?s middle name) with four children, Teresa (Troy-Tacoma, WA & Lincoln City, OR) Dennis (Everett & Fairfield WA), Donna (King- Lake Oswego, OR) and Tom (Deer Park, WA), she was a dedicated volunteer for her sorority, Sigma Kappa, and her church, Faith Lutheran. She also offered her time and talents to Girl Scouts, Marine Corps Auxiliary, Toys for Tots, LWML (Lutheran Women?s Missionary League) and Riverview Terrace. Thrine was a devoted friend to many, a gracious hostess in her home and in the community and a lifelong cheerleader for her children. She was proud of all of them as she was of her twelve grandchildren and thirteen great-grandchildren (& two due soon.) She died peacefully in her sleep at her home at Rockwood at Whitworth on January 4, 2022. She was preceded in death by her husband of sixty-seven years and her son-in-law, Vernon Troy. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Toys for Tots, Faith Lutheran Church, Deer Park, WA, or a charity of your choice. A Memorial service will be held Saturday January 15th at Faith Lutheran Church in Deer Park, WA.
