Crystal Corliss Boles, 47
October 29, 1978 – August 22, 2026
Crystal Corliss Boles was born on October 29, 1978 to Violet F. Pinson Boles and the late Boyce Carlos Boles. She departed this life for her heavenly home on August 22, 2026.
Crystal accepted Christ at a young age, and carried her faith with her throughout her life. She was a proud graduate of the North Pontotoc Class of 1997. Later, Crystal worked as a deli associate at Wal-Mart in Pontotoc, where she was appreciated for her dependable work ethic and fun-loving personality. She enjoyed talking to the people as they entered the store. Her coworkers mentioned there was never a dull moment when she was working.
Crystal enjoyed life, especially cookouts, family gatherings, and girl time with the people she loved. Just like her dad, there was never a dull moment when she was around. She lived a life marked by kindness, laughter, and a warm spirit that touched everyone who knew her. She especially loved spending time with her pitbulls and was a serious animal lover. At the time of her passing, she leaves behind two pitbulls and one iguana, all of whom were part of her daily life and affection. She will be remembered for the joy, kindness, and love she shared so freely.
She is survived by her mother, Violet Pinson Boles of Pontotoc, MS; her godson, Titus Jones of Blue Mountain, MS; four sisters, Tammie Clemmer Chills of Ripley, MS, Lisa Pinson Peggen (Ty) of Tupelo, MS, Catina Pinson of Pontotoc, MS, and Jacove Pinson of Pontotoc, MS; her aunts, Gloria Washington (Vic) of New Albany, MS, and Dorothy Jean Boles of New Albany, MS; her uncle, Hubert Boles of New Albany, MS; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
Crystal was preceded in death by her paternal grandparents, Carl Boles and Mattie Mae Boles of New Albany, MS; and maternal grandparents, Allen and Essie Pinson of Ecru, MS.
