Criscilla Anderson, who has now finally rested from her cancer battle, had four kids, including a stepdaughter from Coffey’s previous relationship.
Criscilla Anderson was an American dancer and choreographer, also known as the wife of singer and songwriter Coffey Anderson.
Coffey and Criscilla had filed for divorce in 2022, though it was reported that the divorce was never finalized.
Despite the split, they maintained a strong bond, and following Criscilla’s recent passing, Coffey expressed his gratitude and sense of loss in an Instagram post.
Late Dancer and Choreographer Criscilla Anderson Leaves a Heartfelt Message to Her Four Kids and the Dear Ones!
Criscilla and Coffey met at a church and married on February 14, 2009.
Together, the couple shared three children: their oldest son, Ethan Coffey‑David Anderson, born around 2011.
Later, in 2013, they welcomed their second child, Emmarie Grace‑Gloria Anderson, and in 2017, their third child, a daughter named Everleigh Anderson.
Among her two daughters, Emmarie is also an enthusiastic dancer, often seen practicing cheerleading and dance moves, as evidenced by her Instagram account.
Criscilla was also step‑mother to Coffey’s daughter from a previous relationship, Savannah Jean Anderson.
Therefore, including Savannah, Criscilla had four kids.
As she battled cancer for some time, she knew she was leaving the world soon. Before her passing, she left a heartfelt message for her loved ones.
According to a post on Lovesong Photography’s Instagram, Criscilla was promised that her message would be shared with her dear ones after her departure.
While she left messages for the community, circles of women, and her family, the message she left for her children reads;
Ethan, you made me a mom. I’m still beside you, cheering you on. Savannah, my bonus girl — you were a gift God knew I needed. Emmarie, my Jesus-loving dancer — keep dancing through every season. Everleigh, my bright spark — chase your dreams boldly and without fear. My babies… I am watching over you. When a moment feels warm, familiar, or too beautiful to be coincidence — that’s me. I’m still mothering you. I’m still yours.
Her early departure has left a void in the community and, of course, in the lives of her children, who have lost their loving mother during their teenage years.
Now that Criscilla has left her four children in their teenage years, she seems to be resting in heaven after battling cancer and difficult times.
After her separation from Coffey, Criscilla had been raising the children. The custody and legal arrangements were not publicly discussed, but with her passing, her children will likely be raised by their father.
