He is survived by his wife of 52 years, Janet Crockett of Round Rock. He is also survived by two brothers: David Crockett and his wife Dixie Jo, and Dick Crockett and his wife Pam, both of McClean, Texas. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews, great-nieces and nephews, and great-great nieces and nephews.
