Karen- I worked with Craig at the FatFish for 3 years, and I remembered the smile on his face every time you came to visit him at work...He was very proud to have you in his life and whenever I hung out with him after work somehow you would come up in the conversation about how it was basically you and him against the world, and how much you two got along. Your son was one of those people that even if you met him for one second, you will never forget him. He had that way about him..he was one of the funniest people i've ever met. He once even asked me to write a paper for him and ended up getting an F on it because of me, and he wasn't even mad at me. He was the best. I hope you're alright and know that he was very proud of you.

craig was the most carefree, happy person i've known in all my life. His love for his family and friends was prescious to all who knew him. I feel so blessed to have had him in our life for the time that we did. We will not mourn for him we will celebrate for the time we had him and will forever hold him in our hearts. His love for people was so commendable, we've never known a person as loving, caring and giving as craig. D'andra and I will always cherish the memory of craig and we'll always think of the happiness he brought to us.

Craig was family to us and we'll always feel the loss as a pain in our hearts but along with that pain we'll always be thankful for being a part of his family.

we'll always love you Craig, God Bless you and Rest in Peace.

love shirley and D'andra

always put a smile on my face <3
