๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ In Loving Memory of Charles โ€œDavidโ€ Crosby ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

We extend our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Charles โ€œDavidโ€ Crosby, who passed away peacefully at home on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, surrounded by his loved ones.

David lived a life full of faith, love, and service. A devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend, he touched countless lives through his years of coaching, mentoring, and dedication to the West Nassau community. His love for the Florida Gators, his passion for history, and his kindness toward others will never be forgotten.

A Celebration of Life will be held Friday, November 7, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at Buford Grove Baptist Church, with visitation beginning at 10:00 a.m.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the West Nassau High School Lady Warriors Softball Team, a program David deeply cared for and helped shape.

Please keep the Crosby family in your thoughts and prayers during this time. ๐Ÿ’™

The suspect behind an armed bank robbery in Yulee has been arrested and is currently in jail. After a weeks-long intensive investigation, Marshall Foskey, 66, of Pembroke, Georgia, has been charged with armed burglary, armed robbery, armed kidnapping, felony possession of a firearm, and grand theft.

The investigation began on October 10, after Foskey allegedly displayed a firearm to staff at First Federal Bank on State Road 200. According to victim statements, he ordered employees to empty all the drawers of money in the teller area. Once the cash was removed, he then forced two victims into the bankโ€™s vault, where they were made to continue filling his bag with money.

Foskey then left the vault area, locking the victims inside. The victims managed to trigger the alarm system, and deputies arrived shortly after.

Investigators canvassed the area for surveillance footage and saw Foskey enter a Dodge Ram pickup truck. Multiple nearby business cameras captured Foskey driving north toward Georgia.

Through a combination of investigative techniques, detectives were able to confirm Foskeyโ€™s identity. With the assistance of the Bryan County Sheriffโ€™s Office (GA), NCSO detectives obtained a warrant and arrested Foskey at his home in Pembroke on October 20. Most of the stolen funds have been recovered.

โ€œI commend the diligent work of our deputies and detectives whose swift and coordinated response led to the apprehension of the suspect responsible for the bank robbery,โ€ said Sheriff Bill Leeper. โ€œTheir professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to public safety ensured this dangerous individual was taken into custody without further incident. This successful outcome reflects the dedication and teamwork that define the Nassau County Sheriffโ€™s Office. This career criminal chose the wrong county to steal from.โ€

Foskey has a lengthy criminal history, including multiple felony burglary charges. He is currently being held in the Bryan County Jail, awaiting a probation violation hearing in Georgia. Once those proceedings are complete, he will be extradited back to Nassau County to face charges.

The Nassau County Sheriffโ€™s Office would like to extend its gratitude to multiple law enforcement partners, including the U.S. Marshal Service, Georgia State Patrol, Georgia Bureau of Investigations, Bryan County Sheriffโ€™s Office (GA), Jeff Davis County Sheriffโ€™s Office (GA), Evans County Sheriffโ€™s Office (GA), Biloxi Police Department (MS), and the Georgia Department of Corrections.
