Cornelia Mae Pue Crutchley
Cornelia (Neile) Pue Crutchley died peacefully Thursday, January 14, 2021, at Kline
Hospice House. She was born June 20, 1940, the daughter of the late Michael E. and
Olga V. Pue, and the wife of Edgar E. Crutchley. Neile grew up in Woodsboro and
attended Frederick County schools, graduating from FHS in 1958.
Neile was employed by Frederick County Public Schools (FCPS) from September 1968
through June 2002. She began her career at Thomas Johnson High School and retired
after working at the farmhouse on Hayward Road—a great experience.
Neile loved her family and was especially grateful to those who were so helpful during
her illness. She loved her church (All Saints’ Episcopal), having been in choirs most of
her life, the Flower Guild half her life, the All Saints’ Ringers, the Joy Bells and the Altar
Guild. She loved her animals and especially loved being at home and putzing in her
backyard.
Neile is survived by her husband Ed of 62 years, her sister Nan Pue and fiancé Pete
Cody, her brother Michael Pue Jr. and wife Betty, her son, Edgar Crutchley Jr. and her
daughter, Tammy Haller; grandchildren Cody Crutchley, Caitlin Eichelmann and
husband Kyle, Adam Klosterman and wife Courtney, Leslie Klosterman and fiancé Tony
Nester, Hannah Klosterman, Emily Ridgely, great-grandson Landon Eichelmann,
nephews, Michael Pue III and wife Terri, Jim Pue and wife Carol Lynn, great nephew
Michael Pue IV, and great nieces Abby and Kinsey Pue.
