Velva Crahan, a pioneer of U-Haul, has died. She was 91 years old. Velva joined the U-Haul family in 1963, shortly after her husband Pat Crahan was hired as president of the marketing company (MCP) of what was then the Oklahoma and Arkansas CSU. Velva ran the marketing company`s office because the person who ran the office got very sick. “Neither Velva nor I had planned for her to work for me,” Pat explained in 2006. While this wasn`t a planned career change for Velva, she soon discovered that it was a role she was made for. “We`ve always worked very well together,” said Pat, who passed away in 2017 after a 54-year career at U-Haul. “And Velva has always made friends with dealers, which has helped me a lot as an MCP.” Their service took place on Saturday, November 21, 2020 in St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church.
