Sydney Cheyenne Blackmon Crabtree, 30, passed away on August 3, 2025. She was born to Shannon McDaniel and Shadrick Blackmon on June 6, 1995 in East Ridge, Tennessee.

Sydney was a natural worshipper and loved Jesus, and she found great joy in praising Him.

She also found happiness in the kitchen, where she loved to cook for others- often turning meals into memorable moments. Her playful spirit, and love of being silly brought laughter and light wherever she went, leaving behind cherished memories filled with warmth, creativity, and joy.
