Krystal Elaine Slater

Krystal was the beloved eldest daughter of the late Clifton Slater and Karleen Wright. As a proud member of a large Jamaican family, she embraced her roots and found joy in sharing her culture—especially through her love of delicious food, spirited dancing, and bringing family and friends together. Krystal was a devoted mother to three, a loving older sister, and an incredible friend to many. Her kindness, radiant spirit, and welcoming warmth created strong bonds with everyone she met.

Krystal will be remembered for her endless generosity, infectious laughter, and the joy she brought to everyday life. She found happiness in trying new foods, sharing fun moments with loved ones, and always making those around her feel included and cared for. Her legacy of love, loyalty, and compassion will live on in her children, her devoted mother, her sister, her big family, and all who were blessed to know her. Though she is gone far too soon, her caring spirit and vibrant presence will be treasured always.

Survivors include her children, Zayden Halmon, Zara Darden, and Zia Darden, all of Fredericksburg, VA; her mother, Karleen Wright of Fredericksburg, VA; and her sister, Katelyn McCurrie of Alexandria, VA.

Funeral services will be held at 6:00pm on Saturday, November 22, 2025, at Mullins & Thompson Funeral Service, Fredericksburg, with Apostle Kevin Mihlfeld and Pastor Earl Richardson officiating. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service.
