WILMINGTON — William “Edward” Croom passed on April 12, 2026, at the age of 84.
He was born on January 12, 1942 to William David Croom and Annie Gertrude Croom in Columbus County, North Carolina.
Edward has been a resident of Wilmington, North Carolina for the last 72 years.
What a fragile and tender gift it is to be invited into another’s sorrow; to be seen as safe enough to witness the most unguarded corners of their heart.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations in Edwards’ honor to a charity of choice.
