I very much enjoyed our ice fishing trips with Mud(Craig), Chad Kuhn, and my bother Dale and son to Lake Winnibigosh in the Spring! We always had so many great times and lots of laughter. Craig was definitely a special person and great friend to Chad especially throughout their college years. He will be missed dearly. Rest in peace Craig!
