Craig was a very sweet man. He was my classmate at Pantego high school. I moved our sophomore year and had to go to John A Wilkinson high school were I graduated from. But I will always remember Craig as a very special person.
Rest in peace my friend and classmate.
Stay strong Sherry. God needed another angel.

Let you know the previous message I sent had the wrong name signed. The 1978 grad class will miss him, so smart and handsome. We will miss him !

My heart is heavy. Craig was my oldest friend. We met as kids our freshman year at UNC and we remained friends as adults. I will miss him.

Craig has been like a brother to me since our freshman year at Carolina in 1978. I loved Craig dearly and will cherish all of the memories we've shared throughout the years. Rest in peace, brother. Steve Stewart

Me and my fiancée have been working for Craig for the last four years. We’ve enjoyed every second. He was a joy to work for and we looked forward to our long talks with him after we finished cleaning his home. He was not just our employer, but one of our best friends. John and Makayla love and miss you Craig!

"Crunch a cookie for Craig" will always be one of my fondest memories. What a great friend he was in school. I still remember he had me memorize his name as Craig Hassell Oscar Respess Seaton Macon Jr.
