Was the computer sleeping and woken by a Bluetooth device before it crashed?
Looks like CPU 13 (CPU 0 core 2), trapped an exception when the machine changed power states.
If so, that could indicate either a kernel or hardware bug, out of spec power on the system board, or to a single CPU VRU, or an incompatible device attached that responded incorrectly with the IOCTL call upon waking up.
RAM could be the culprit, but depopulating RAM might only reduce power draw and hide a defective VRU on the CPU package.
Really you need to send the stack trace back to Apple (store) so they can match it in their support DB to get the correct cause.
ETA: check the firmware revision:

Lear60man,
I knew it was cut and paste, just taking a fun poke at the sheer amount of text.
Sorry I can’t help right now, perhaps some of the other more knowledgeable CGers can help.
On another direction, I may need help on chartering a biz jet trip. When that time comes, I was planning on getting your advice. Ok?Comment

CCC is just a front end for rsync, Recovery Partition Creator and bless (systemsetup). If you know those three included utilities, you can achieve the same result with a backup script and cron.Comment

I always have an external bootable drive so I guess if you don't have a good backup plan that would be a benefit. Personally I have three separate backups of my HD data and one regular bootable drive if the internal drive fails.NRA Life Member

I can see you also don't keep an external drive that you can boot to. You also may want to read this if you're running the current OS:

TimeMachine has its place. But Apple’s idea of (inter)NetBoot and restore is kneecapped and retarded. That’s why the recovery partition exists, but it’s so limited in usefulness that a working bootable clone is always the easiest route.
Where TimeMachine shines, is when you need versioned backups of critical documents while employing delta compression.
There are numerous problems with SIP and T2, that are not limited to backup utilities. Both are boondoggles for security and actively get in the way of actual productive system use. I would expect nothing less from a company run by progressive dogma.
I will not be giving up my current non-T2, Mojave-powered 32-bit capable Mac until it finally gives out. Next purchase will be running straight BSD on a better open platform. Apple has truly gone off the deep-end with respect to their professional user-base.Comment

Thank you! I think I found the issue. When I put this together I swapped out the original graphics card with another. It appears the new (used) one was bad. PUt the original one back in and no problems since (cross my fingers).Was the computer sleeping and woken by a Bluetooth device before it crashed?
