Crystal Casaus (age: 47) was born in Pueblo CO and attended East High School. She had a big personality and made friends that lasted a lifetime. She moved to Denver in her teens to live with family and there met more lifelong friends and blessed all of us with her three beautiful children Elissa, AJ and Aaliyah.

Crystal was an avid sports fan who loved the Denver Broncos, Colorado Avalanche, Colorado Rockies and Denver Nuggets. She was all about family and friends. She was the most generous person you could ever hope to meet, and she would take care of anyone who needed it. Her laughter was contagious, her heart was all encompassing. She never failed to light up a room with her bright smile and sense of humor. She loved beyond measure and was loved as much in return.
