To my old teammate on the Bangor Slaters, Craig was a Mack Truck of a lineman, as was the size of his heart. I am sad to hear the news. He was kind, courteous, and always made ya laugh. My sympathy to all who knew him. God Bless you my friend....

The world could sure use a whole bunch of guys like Gilly... Now there's one less than the one we all had. Maybe we can each go out of our way once in a while to talk to someone.... Make a single person feel special for just a little bit.... Put a smile on someone's face with no expectations.... Maybe we could do that periodically, to honor our friend, Gilly. It might help to fill that empty spot he left us.

I'm going to miss our everyday talks, Good Morning and Good Night's.
And our outings to eat and when I took you to Dr. Visits.
You will leave a huge void in everyone's heart. Labor Day won't be the same not seeing you at your stand. And I will always cherish the ice cream incident and get a good chuckle. You were loved by many.
Barry and Family our deepest condolences to you. ❤
