I only knew Craig as the little boy next door-the one I babysat and took puddle stomping.. what a great kid!! He grew into such an amazing and giving person, and I am so proud to have known him.

I have known Craig since his parents brought him home.... His wonderful sense of humor was apparent from the start, as was that special twinkle in his eyes. He was like my own child and I will miss him greatly. My love and prayers go out to all who knew and loved him.

I only new Craig for this past summer season- working with him through the city program. Craig was an amazing man. His work in helping others was amazing. You all should be so proud of him. He will be greatly missed.
