September 4, 2023
Six years ago, which seems like a lifetime, my world crashed. Lost, I didn´t know how I would or could manage without you. Our boys pulled and pushed and held me. It has not been easy, but with the love and support of our families I have made it. I hope that you are proud of me, I try everyday to make you proud. I miss you beyond words, and will love you forever!

missed beyond measure.

I remember Craig as the best father and family guy ever!!!
He inspired his sons daily as well as my son, Miles. I would always hear about the latest cool off-roading or other adventure Craig had done when he was young or about a new unique place he brought the kids to. Craig taught Miles to shoot. His love of building/electricity and passing that knowledge to the next generation was another gift from him. Every time I walk out my carport and pass the florescent light he installed with my son, I think of Craig and the stories he shared that made the kids and everyone so happy. Those memories and his kindness will never die.

I'm so sorry to hear of Craig's passing. I was working a job today when a man in charge of a project I was working on asked me if I had known Craig and I told him of work we were involved with some 30 years ago. Craig would always have something to say that would make me laugh. Had nothing but good memories of working around Craig. Craig you left us to soon, you will be missed. God bless you and your family.

Hi Sue, we are so sorry to hear of your loss. My mom just read the paper and saw the notice. If she had read it sooner, she would have been at the service to pay her respects as she remembers you both fondly. You were wonderful neighbors when we lived on Walnut street, and she said when she read the obituary, she thought it was spot on as those were all things she remembered about Craig too. As for me, although I was only elementary school age when I knew him (and 43 now), I always think of him when I see old clips of the A-Team as I know he was crazy about Howling Mad Murdock and I think they might have been related in a former life. :) :) Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family and we hope that your memories bring you peace and comfort in time. May his memory be a blessing to all who knew him. Sincerely, Alyssa Alderman and Sharlene Alderman (now Harris)

Sue, please let us know what we may do with you and for you, as well as how we may help you through your grief. Craig always spoke highly of you in every conversation, as well as the boys, just because he loved you so. We mean it. Whatever we may do, let us know and we will help whatever way is possible. Please, if you'd like to talk, cry more, bear your heart...but please reach out. How may we help financially?
Lovely people are meant to be loved and you are loved.

Our sincerest condolences to the great Preble family on this terrible and untimely loss. Of course I remember Craig well with his humor and antics, which sound like they continued uninterrupted into adulthood. In the days ahead, we pray that you'll remember and treasure the joy he brought to your lives. May he rest in peace with our Lord.

Words cannot express our sorrow. We remember Craig as a very loving husband to Sue (our youngest son's inspirational preschool teacher) and a fun loving, "role model" dad instilling dry humor, Tucson history, passion for adventure and inventive knowledge in his boys as well as in our oldest son. His unending kindness and helpfulness will never be forgotten. Craig's spirit will live in all of us always. Love,
September 12, 2017
May the memories of Craig live in your hearts and minds. And may that memory manifest into a smile.

Oh, Craig, now we will attempt the impossible, to smile at our memories of your kindness and goofiness, while our hearts are shattered. We will look to the rest of your sweet family and witness the strength and compassion that you and Sue instilled in your boys, through the power of your love for one another. I will hear your laughter always. Happy trails, Cousin of Mine.
