My thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of Dr. Craddock. I was so blessed to have him as my homiletics professor at Candler many years ago..and for twenty-three years, used his method of preaching and preparation of sermons. He lived a rich and inspirational narrative. He encouraged me in my writing later and remained a friend and mentor. May God bless and comfort all who mourn his loss and rejoice that he lived into and out of God's gracious and profound will for his life. Love, Patty W. Ryle
