The NamUs profile has zero important information besides his name. Fortunately, his name is relatively unique, so it wasn’t too hard to find him. Looks like NamUs misspelled his surname, Crummie, as “Crummic”.

ancestry.com lists numerous dates of birth. He was born on September 1, 1934, 1936, 1937, or 1938. He passed away on April 8, 1995.

There is a second Leroy Crummie born in Gary, IN in 1958. Maybe his son?
 
I'm pretty sure this younger Leroy Crummie born in March 1958 is his son.

Public records indicate that a Leroy Crummie married a Shirley Faye Roberson (later Shirley Faye Crummie) in 1956. Public records also show that Shirley Roberson/Crummie AND the younger Leroy both lived at the same address at one point (4454 Grant St. in Gary, IN)
 
I found a FB profile for a Leroy Crummie who says in their bio that they graduated from Lew Wallace High School in Gary, IN. I'm hopeful that it's him. It appears he is still alive...

It confirms she had a son named Leroy

This is NOT the same Shirley Crummie who was born at about the same time. That Shirley was born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA. This Shirley Roberson (later Crummie) was born in Texarkana, AK
