Placeholder

Margaret Doggett Crow, wife of the late Trammell Crow, died Friday. She was 94. She was part of World War II history when she was on a school-sponsored tour of Europe aboard the SS Athena, which was torpedoed and sunk by the Germans off the British coast. Margaret and her friends had to be rescued from lifeboats hours later. She married in 1942 and they had six children. Among her many accomplishments was the creation of the Trammell and Margaret Crow Collection of Asian Art museum. She was preceded in death by her husband in 2009 and her oldest son, Robert Crow, in 2011. She is survived by five children, 17 grandchildren, and eight great-grandchildren. The family requests that in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to The Margaret and Trammell Crow Chair for Alzheimer’s and Geriatric Research at Southwestern Medical Foundation in Dallas, The Trammell and Margaret Crow Collection of Asian Art, or The Hockaday School for Girls.
